@LoisElfman @NY1 @DavidPrizeNYC That was back when Errol and I were running the credit union. MacNeil Lehrer News Hour, CNN and a few hours, but never 60 Minutes.

I saw you on @NY1 tonight, @GriffithMW. Congratulations on @DavidPrizeNYC. I have an odd question. Did you appear on 60 Minutes maybe 25-30 years ago?

Thanks @nwquah for putting School Colors at the top of the inaugural @vulture 1.5x Speed newsletter! Don't take it from us: Nick says School Colors is "excellent" and "sweeping," and our "community-rooted orientation lends the series added potency." vulture.com/2020/08/school…

@nishatnguyen Please, please listen to the SECOND 4 episodes of School Colors. It gets to present day and offers another angle on the reporting done in NWP, especially episode 7 of SC.

Nice White Parents listeners....more listening! School Colors podcast from @GriffithMW and @maxfreedperson. A deeply researched historical story about Brooklyn public schools, power and Black self-determination. Produced at @BKMovement. You want to hear this.
English
Lovely conversation with Anne Pasmanick. Insightful questions from someone who understands our struggle.

Turns out that embracing a theory of change and doing the hard work of organizing and building a base pays off. @GriffithMW leads @BKMovement in reimagining safety & policing, food sovereignty, housing rights & conditions in Central Bklyn. HEAR HIM! bit.ly/3j9g0xA #

In this moment we need nonprofits that are more about movement building than empire building. So why do Black-led community organizing groups struggle? I asked @GriffithMW who is lifting up community and dismantling systemic inequity at @BKMovement.

@alexanderrusso Alendander. Sorry I missed this. In the future, email or text me. It's embarrassing to admit, but my twitter feed is off my daily radar.

@karshanandrea @ChabadLubavitch @aefeldman Black anti-semitism is real AND the intersections between race, class and public faith in Crown Heights are particularly complex. And even with all that, we have NO idea what was on the minds of the people who led the assaults.
English
@ChabadLubavitch @aefeldman This is a thread on black antisemitism. And I believe that the reasons I listed in this thread are the causes of black antisemitism in Crown Heights. Gentrification is in the list.

Andrea Karshan@karshanandrea
My non-Jewish friend thinks that black antisemitism IN NYC comes from some blacks feeling like they are being oppressed by Jewish landlords,being oppressed by the police & politicians (who they believe are controlled by Jews), gentrification(the Jews are taking over) (1/3)
English
1. Attacks are on a rise where gentrification isn’t an issue. 2. People are preaching hate using gentrification to galvanize their base. 3. Gentrification is about economics not race @aefeldman forward.com/news/national/…
English
@ChabadLubavitch @aefeldman "Gentrification is about economics not race" is a denial of the manifestations of racism, similar to the way conflating whiteness and anti-semitism can mask anti-semitism. Let's not obscure each other's humanity to prove our own.
English
@ChabadLubavitch I won't get swept up in your name calling. Of course it's anti-semitism, not to mention wrong and disgusting. I wasn't saying it's not. I was responding to the reporter and giving insight on how jewishness and whiteness are often conflated.
English
. @GriffithMW R attacks against white people 4 being white a more acceptable form of violence? Moronic. Attacking Jews for being a “form of almost hyper-whiteness,” is anti Semitism at its core! Question is whether its unique 2 CH or part of national rise of anti semitism
