here's footage of Mamdani alongside city workers filling the 200,000th NYC pothole since the start of his term This is part of his push to spotlight city workers and inform New Yorkers that all the fixes they ask for "should be directed to the real heroes, City Workers, who can be reached via 311"

Macklemore says “free Palestine” and the ADL applauds him losing gigs for it. Kanye West puts out a song called “Heil Hitler” the org can’t be bothered to have an opinion on it. Instead, they insert themselves into the concert venues to do trainings on hate symbols.
In addition, the ADL has been working to put together a "best practices" guide which will include training venue workers on anti-Semitic symbols, statements and other totems. Those materials will be available to workers at both of Ye's shows.

1. During an interview with Jon Stewart, Hizzoner Zohran Mamdani explained that the principles of democratic socialism are deeply embedded in American society. We just don't notice them, he said.

She coined the term ‘intersectionality’ and helped to develop critical race theory, now her life’s work is under attack by Washington’s war on ‘woke’. As her memoir is published, the legal scholar explains why she’ll never stop speaking truth to power
