    If peaceful protests did nothing, the powerful wouldn't try so hard to silence them. #TakeAKnee

    BREAKING: We're suing the NYPD on behalf of a transgender woman who was charged with “false personation” after she provided officers with both her previous and current legal names. We can't allow the NYPD to continue criminalizing transgender people for existing.

    This is your reminder that the daily budget for the NYPD is $29 million. Imagine what we could achieve if we could divest from policing and instead spend millions on resources that would truly help New Yorkers, like housing, jobs, schools, mental health support, and more.

    Since @NYCMayor wants to teach New Yorkers how to film cops, allow us to teach cops how to respect New Yorkers who film: - People have a right to film police work in public - You can't order them to stop filming. - You can thank them for doing their part to ensure transparency

    “If your iPhone can’t catch that picture with you being at a safe distance, then you need to upgrade your iPhone. Stop being on top of my police officers while they’re carrying out their jobs. That is not acceptable & it won’t be tolerated”: @NYCMayor⁩ re public recording cops

    The NYPD is using facial recognition to target protesters. This technology is notoriously inaccurate at identifying women + people of color. Given the NYPD’s troubling history of unlawful surveillance, their use of facial recognition tech must end now.
    Video stills show an officer holding a paper that say "Facial Recognition Unit"
