Our biggest holiday party yet was a jingle bell rockin’ success! 🎄🔔❄️ We had a wonderful time seeing everyone and were incredibly touched to be able to donate over 15 toys and a handful of coats to those in need this season. Thank you to everyone and see you in 2026! 🎇

this is the unspoken but absolutely clear argument at hand.
That’s the thing man. If they are to be taken at their word the only takeaway is that there should be no black people in any job any other white person wants. One quick Google search for any of these jobs would show there are usually one or two minorities are best in a unit of 20 or 30 or more.
UAlbany, one of those, NY state universities, has been hovering around 4 percent tenure track Black faculty since ever. I am THE Black tenure track political scientists. These folks are just little liars.

Join us for a virtual phone bank to support Aftyn for Congress today, tomorrow, and Monday night. Even though it's not in New York, we need to make sure voters can get out to the polls before Tennessee's special election on December 2nd!l www.mobilize.us/aftynforcong...

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

Our President, Manik Elahi, was quoted in a story for @wamcradio.bsky.social discussing Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani's generational election and the type of coalition he managed to build-a lot of which, started right here in Albany with AMAC! Read the full article on WAMC's website.

Pro-Democracy work includes ensuring our neighbors are fed. Amid SNAP cuts, Indivisible Albany is fundraising 100% for the Regional Food Bank of Northeastern NY

SNAP Back means to keep our fight going forward and doing the work that Republicans can't

We don’t wait for change — we build it.💥

Our 2025 Installation Celebration & Awards was more than a ceremony — it was a call to action, a declaration of what’s next. On Tuesday we proved that the future of Albany County is bold, young, and unstoppable.
