🧵 Empowering discussion with @NowNassau last night on ending the toxic culture of sexual harassment. Thank you so much for having me! 👀 the clips in this thread for highlights. (1/5)
There is no future for women that's equal if we don't end destructive, toxic harassment and abuse of power on many levels. (2/5)
To end that culture, we first must name it. But it's not easy for survivors to speak up and release what happened to us. (3/5)
This man is rotten to the core. It’s not about helping NYC. It’s about exerting his will to benefit himself and his benefactors.
The amount of money sunken into Midtown West purely based around his whims and without local engagement is criminal. nydailynews.com/news/politics/…
His posture vis-à-vis regional transit whether we speak of Amtrak or New Jersey Transit is a great example of what a dangerous criminal @NYGovCuomo is. He will literally build entire structures to say “screw you” to other power players that he cannot control.
He always had the worst ideas about transit motivated by the worst impulses.
If he appears to have a good idea it’s because he has taken the credit from someone else and probably destroyed them in the process out of spite alone for being smarter than he is.
I am not your tool. Do not use me to abdicate for your lack of leadership here. Do better. Be better.
In case you are someone who needs to be brought up to speed about @CarlHeastie reaction to pervasive sexual harassment by our governor - he worries these allegations could fall on him too and that’s informing his response.
The loss of 8 beloved people is an unspeakable tragedy.
It is anti-Asian hatred and white nationalist terrorism that was condoned straight from the top. Donald Trump and others lit up a long simmering hatred and bigotry that has long been a part of this country.
Right now I and millions of others hold space for these innocent people and their loved ones.
It is unspeakably horrible. Truly horrible and will never be understood. Such violence and hate.
Every racist joke, every xenophobic comment, paved the steps to this absolute horror.
We will never be the America some white people think we are until this deep and systemic hatred is gone.
