I can confirm that court watching for people who are not retired is an excellent way to make good trouble. @PROPNYC
THREAD. If you want to do some volunteering or if you're retired, a great thing to do is watch court. Join your local courtwatch program, or organize together with your community to start one. It will blow your mind, make you new friends, and make the right kind of enemies.

In my career as a public defender handling over 1,000 cases and witnessing tens of thousands handled by my colleagues, I have *never* seen a desk appearance ticket issued for a gun possession case. Just sayin. thecity.nyc/2023/10/13/23915…

Big news in Lower Manhattan today: A new tower has just been approved for the 5 WTC site. Will be *housing*. 1,200 units, including 400 affordable, w/ preference for 9/11 survivors and first responders. Will create 10k union construction jobs. We need more of this everywhere.

Have it backwards: the police are a source of white nationalist hate.

Copagandists @rafa_mangual & @commissbratton start with a truth: "New York City isn’t the hellscape that some anti-progressives on the right sometimes hyperbolize. Compared to the dark days of the late 1970s, ’80s & early ’90s, New York is much safer" themessenger.com/opinion/new…

Court monitors with @propnyc will be listening ....
Not super confident of the mileage they'd get, but I wonder if any NYC public defenders on arraignment shifts this week will try making use of the language in the Rikers monitor's latest report:

Disability justice is reproductive justice. Disability justice is racial justice. Disability justice is economic justice. Disability justice is a basic human right. #DisabilityPrideMonth 🎨: @liberaljanee

The essence of hip-hop is liberation. It teaches us about public health, affordable housing, Black power and police brutality, and ending poverty. People who call themselves hip-hop leaders should govern like it. These are the policies we need in NY. Hip-hop demands that of us.
If you tell Rep. Jamaal Bowman that Eric Adams calls himself the hip-hop mayor? “Hahaha that’s a joke! Make sure you write I’m laughing my ass off, because that’s a joke.” cityandstateny.com/politics/…
