Incredibly sad. This is the 2nd time this year that homeless NYers have been targeted in a string of attacks. Stigma kills--as our friend Carl Garrison has said, “You can’t talk about people as being vermin and being ‘disgusting animals’ without it having a repercussion.” (1/2)

Someone is attacking homeless men in Manhattan as they sleep. One fatally stabbed last week, two more stabbed and wounded Friday and yesterday. by @HurubieMeko and me nytimes.com/2022/07/12/nyr…

"It was either we shut up or we speak up! So we decided to speak up. We were in the streets. If it wasn't in the streets, it was on the phone. If it wasn't on the phone, it was on social media." 📢 - @maria_walles on the history of #JulyHomelessRights #HomelessRightsMonth

Last week I couldn’t get a safe haven bed for an elder woman sleeping on my stoop. Turns out the mayor is spending $29 million dedicated to safe haven funds on something else, most likely cops. He wants to disappear and punish homeless people, not help them.

Today I spent an hour trying to help a woman sleeping on my stoop get a safe haven bed (aka a room she doesn’t have to share w/ 30 people). After a long process we were told nothing is available. There are no safe options for people living on the street to come inside.

NYC arrested one of the members of the Tompkins Homeless Collective multiple times this week but they can’t stop him from calling out the abuses of the NYC shelter system & demanding apartments for all homeless New Yorkers.

⚠️ CW: Police brutality ⚠️ Fri, 4/22, our friend John Grima was arrested by NYPD during a surprise raid of his camp. No notice, no outreach workers. Just cops. They slammed him against a fence & on the ground so badly he needed an ambulance, then was held in jail over night

“You know who I am. You know what I want: Apartments” This is why so many people find working with outreach so frustrating. People continue to have to share their personal information, their name, date of birth, etc. and don’t feel like they’re getting anything in return.

About 40% of homeless people in NYC are gainfully employed. I was among them.

.@NYCMayor’s policies push people from the subways to the streets, then the streets to the subways, without offering housing. All the while, homeless people suffer more than they already are and lose any remaining trust or faith in homeless outreach and its ability to help them.
Seth Pollack@sethmpk

Got to see some of Eric Adams’ asinine policing late last night. Took a train downtown from the Bronx. In midtown, cops got on the train at a few stations, delaying everyone to noisily wake up some people sleeping. No compassion, no housing, just delays and NYPD overtime.

@MaraGay A great number of people living outside in NYC do not need supportive housing, they just need an apartment, of which there are tens and tens of thousands sitting empty, owned by the city and by private landlords.

Tomorrow is another chance to come out and defend unhoused New Yorkers from the cops who keep trying to disappear them. Bring a box of coffee, introduce yourself, film the police and no one else— it’s basically just being a good neighbor.

The city just posted a 'sweep' notice for tomorrow on 10th St. near Ave. B, a site where dozens of NYPD spent Wednesday morning harassing residents without apparent legal cause while the accused subway shooter was ambling around a few blocks away until civilians saw him.
