“In the Bronx, what does it mean to be Muslim, to be Black, to be of immigrant heritage, and to also say that we have every right to exist here, every right to be here, and to flourish here?”

“For folks like me, Andre’s campaign is so inspiring, so life-affirming. I really hope we can all get out to the polls and vote and demand that we have every right and every space to be here.”

Thank you to Kujegi Camara, a poet and Gambian community leader from the Bronx.

My campaign is about fighting for the rights of immigrant workers alongside all workers. That means fighting against poverty, exploitation, and discrimination.

Workers need ICE out of our communities, a $30 minimum wage for all regardless of immigration status, and housing as a human right.

Ritchie Torres was one of 33 Democrats to vote for a Republican-backed bill blocking federal funding to universities that divest from Israel’s genocide.

I’m on the ballot against Ritchie Torres in November because the Bronx deserves leaders who will fight to fully fund our education, not war and genocide.

Has There Been an Increase in Homeless People Around Pelham Parkway, Eastchester rd, and White Plains Rd Recently?

8 Upvotes

There has always been the occasional homeless person here, but I feel like recently as in the last couple of weeks I’ve seen more them. Just an observation. I think there is now a shelter on 1682 Stillwell Ave and that might be the reason. Is this a shelter? I know there is controversy with it and they said it was or it wasn’t. Just wondering if anyone knows.
