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."

Including a podcast all about NXIVM.

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! https://t.co/VwLi2ZfgCT #

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. https://t.co/VwLi2ZfgCT

I want to thank all the advocates and organizations who fought alongside me for years to increase police accountability and transparency. I will always be with you in the fight for justice. @changethenypd
VICTORY! The fight for police accountability took a step forward this week - thanks to @cmreynoso34 & tireless advocates, WE WON Intro 541! This law will help protect NYers from unconstitutional searches. Bittersweet that NYC also took a step backwards with Intro 182.
