Demonizing peaceful protesters threatens our democracy. With 20 yrs in the labor movement, I’ve organized rallies, protests, marches & sit-ins - often with nurses & all of them peaceful. Protest happens when people are challenging unjust power, and fighting for a voice. THREAD🧵

It is even more harmful when we gaslight the media and the public. That is exactly what KDL did in this interview and, even after the full video came out showing his team were the aggressors - and he continued to lie to us.
At a holiday event last night with scores of families and children present, Councilmember de León, a staff member, and non-profit staff person were physically assaulted by so-called activists. Please see the Councilmember’s statement.

When races come down to 511 votes, it means that every single effort that was made mattered. Every door knock, every call, every donation is the reason we won this race. We could not have done it without you. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

We have a Councilmember who participated in a racist conversation where joined others to conspire to undermine the voice of Black voters. For that alone he should have resigned. Now, his assault of a protestor and his gaslighting over the facts leaves him no choice.

Saying protests = a threat attempts to justify KDL’s behavior & is dangerous. Protestors disturbing a meeting isn't violence. Protesters calling for resignations isn't violence. Protestors filming isn't violence. Protesting when leaders will not hear you otherwise isn’t violence.

The systemic undermining of peaceful protest is a very dangerous and slippery slope. It leads to a sitting Councilmember feeling justified enough to lie to the media, to his constituents, and to all of us. He even thinks he can get away with it. We need to make sure he doesn't.

Since my Trump Republican opponent & her corporate backers love to give me credit for every protest since the beginning of time…we dug up an old photo they can use in their next attack ad.

Throughout history, we've seen some protests turn violent. Death threats against public officials are becoming all too common. But we set a dangerous precedent when we cry wolf, calling every protest violent & making the line of what’s a true threat murky.

I'm a fierce advocate for the 1st Amendment & believe that you can’t just say you support it - you must exercise it to protect it. I don’t agree with every reason folks protest, language or tactics used. But I don’t have to. If it’s peaceful, it's legal and it's a right.
