My first article for the brand new LGBTQ Community News. I hope you enjoy this piece exploring how the intersectional identities of 3 activists: @mynameisjro.bsky.social, @jawanza.bsky.social and Yanery Cruz impact their work in The Resistance.

I cannot express enough how grief is not unaffected by genocide, mass confusion, authoritarianism, and the increasingly bleak future.

Philanthropies Strike a Promising Deal to Turn Back H.I.V.

By @apoorvanyt.bsky.social

Low- and middle-income countries will be able to purchase an effective preventative at a reduced price. The arrangements may help stem the epidemic 40 years after it began.

We're shocked –– shocked we tell you! –– that @nyscomptroller.bsky.social found that the Federal Budget Scam hurts working-class New Yorkers while benefiting the ridiculously rich.

Anyone else think it's time for a special session to #TaxTheRich?
Earlier today, State Comptroller DiNapoli released a report analyzing the impact that the Federal Budget Scam’s tax cut extensions will have on New Yorkers. This report comes on the heels of an analysis by the Fiscal Policy Institute that confirms New York’s growing economic inequality. Below is a statement from Erica Vladimer, communications coordinator for the Invest in Our New York Campaign, in response to the Comptroller’s report: “The analysis from Comptroller DiNapoli confirms what we already knew: The federal budget scam will move billions of dollars into the pockets of the richest New Yorkers, including the 130 billionaires who call New York home, while hurting working-class people in our state. "Congressional Republicans passed a budget that cut our safety net programs and increased burdens on working-class people, all to pay for tax breaks for the rich. It is not enough for state lawmakers to criticize the federal government; they must also take action to protect New Yorkers. “Governor Hochul, Leader Stewart-Cousins, and Speaker Heastie must convene a special session, make the super wealthy and highly profitable corporations pay their fair share, and invest those new public dollars in keeping our healthcare whole and making New York affordable for everyone. “As Comptroller DiNapoli’s report makes clear, the federal budget scam ‘further skews tax benefits to individuals and businesses at higher income’ and will ‘put a heavier burden on working-class New Yorkers trying to make ends meet.’ New York’s millionaires and billionaires can afford to pay what they owe in taxes.”

Visual AIDS | Upcoming Event Harm Reduction Today: Needle Exchange, Abolition, and Sex Parties, Oh MY!! MoMA PS1 Date: Saturday, September 27, 2025 from 4:00pm–5:30pm https://share.google/bgHD3QtcgzUWf9v20 In tandem with Love Rules: The Harm Reduction Archives of Heather Edney and Richard Berkowitz, our current exhibition at MoMA PS1, Visual AIDS presents a conversation exploring the landscape of harm reduction today — from Mpox, PrEP, and sex parties to Narcan, fentanyl, and the enduring value of community-based outreach efforts.  Tickets are not required to attend. MoMA PS1 is free for all New Yorkers. Following the tradition of safe sex and safer drug use practices championed by harm reduction activists such as Heathey Edney and Richard Berkowitz, this program will bring together three individuals applying harm reduction strategies in their work. Harm reductionist Tamara Oyola-Santiago, co-founder of Bronx Móvil, will recount her work as a public health educator implementing syringe exchange programs. Organizer Jawanza James Williams, of VOCAL-NY, will discuss harm reduction as it intersects with housing justice and abolition. Filmmaker/curator Adam Baran, co-producer of HOW TO HAVE SEX IN A PANDEMIC and an organizer of monthly sex parties in Brooklyn, will share practices to support collective sexual health care. This panel will celebrate the final weeks of Love Rules by reflecting on what has and hasn't changed since the early days of safe sex and safe injection practices. Following the discussion, visitors are welcome to explore the exhibition and converse with the panelists.  Love Rules: The Harm Reduction Archives of Heather Edney and Richard Berkowitz is on view at MoMA PS1 from April 24 to October 6.

More than 20,000 children have been murdered in Gaza by the Israeli military since 2023.

Nearly 400 Palestinians have been killed by the same government via human-caused famine. They were starved to death.

Hundreds of thousands of NYers will lose their health insurance as soon as January 2026. Governor Hochul and state lawmakers can mitigate the funding cuts by taxing the rich and passing the New York for All Act. SPECIAL SESSION NOW! @jawanza.bsky.social @investinourny.bsky.social

Do *NOT* join ICE.

No amount of money, even when we are poor, is worth the destruction of your own soul or the violence of attacking people via the authority of a nation founded by genocide and land theft; a nation built and defined by ensalvement, fascist authoritarianism (Jim Crow)

Benjamin Netanyahu, his admin, and any Israeli supporting his diabolical plan to steal ALL of Gaza are genocidal war criminals who deserve nothing less than the full application of existing international law and they should be the precedent for new law that the world needs.

Today marks 80 yrs since the United States dropped the first of two atomic bombs on Hiroshima, Japan.

Instantly incinerating ~80,000 people.

Thousands more died later.

Nukes have got to go.

We couldn’t afford the first bombing, nor the second.

If another drops, it will be annihilation.

Just learning that ICE is offering $50,000 sign on bonuses and student loan forgiveness just made me nearly hyperventilate.

They have stolen from us and They have played in our faces.

They (capitalists) decided like 40-50 years ago that it is, and also that it is okay to exterminate the rest of us (and all life) in the process.

See EXXON knowing that their practices had climate impact a full 50 years before most.

I’ve been making a comparison to the story of the very popular anime “Attack on Titan.”

I worry about backing Israel, a nuclear-armed country, into a corner; in the same way I’d be worried were the U.S. (or when it finally is).

I’m aware; but, I think if International Law is to survive, at least, an attempt to name these sorts of violations for what they are is important for its legitimacy.

People can learn or understand the limitations and the consequence of this kind of hegemony.

We may have to do a mass march to the Everglades Concentration Camp before hurricane season is in full swing to free those detained there.

It would be our responsibility.

They’re in harms way.

They built a glorified tent in a remote, hurricane-prone, 100MPH+ winds and flooding, and claim that it is *not* about homicidal intent?

We need the International Criminal Court to do something. The world should be sanctioning my country for this alone.

Until our government stops this terror.

Try using “Everglades Concentration Camp” instead of “Alligator Alcatraz,” if you’re interested in the truth and against fascist manipulation.
