It is DEEPLY important to get non-millionaires, non-tech-industry-hacks, and non-Wall-Street people onto Boards of Trustees of Colleges and Universities. I've seen @syed.nyc in action in the Working Families Party and hope you'll vote for him if you're a Wesleyan grad.

If you happen to be a Wesleyan alum, please vote for @syed.nyc to serve on the Board of Trustees! My brief attestation in support:

Syed has been an exemplary leader of NY WFP's Brooklyn Chapter, navigating the complexities of coalition dynamics with both moral integrity and intellectual nuance.

Immigrants are New York, so no wonder that every issue showed up at tonight’s mayoral forum: worker protection + business permitting, LGBTQ rights + healthcare, schools + safe streets.

Shoutout to @thenyic.bsky.social @cunyslu.bsky.social @thecity.nyc @documentedny.bsky.social for a great forum.

Attention NYC nonprofits! This year, the Nonprofit Finance Fund (NFF) is doing a special analysis of the NYC nonprofit sector, and your response is needed to tell that story. Please take the #NFFSurvey and ensure your organization is heard. ow.ly/5lnU50UY44O

The City is asking nonprofits to provide essential human services on its behalf. It’s criminal that payments are delayed for so many, by so much.

I was stuck on the F train for 1.5 hours on Wednesday and now I’m forced to take a Lyft home from Broadway-Lafayette because the F isn’t running. Kathy Hochul has screwed New Yorkers.
