Congratulations @GovKathyHochul! I am looking forward to supporting you as our 57th Governor! This is a historic day for New York, particularly for women and girls who are witnessing our first woman Governor. https://t.co/EYCHZVcuMf

This morning, I jogged/walked 2.23 miles in support of Ahmaud Arbery and his family on his birthday. Jogging while black shouldnt be a death sentence. #istandwithmaud #harlem #marcusgarveypark https://t.co/gKH1kdTJWd

The message is simple. #ProtectBlackWomen at all costs. I joined @streetcornerres, @gosonyc, @lifecampinc & other cure violence organizations from all corners of NYC for a rally in response to the unthinkable attack on a Black woman at a Harlem liquor store earlier this week. https://t.co/2ZVEOEBwfw

I dont know in what other language I need to say this!! The NYPD should NOT be enforcing social distancing!!!!!Use the faith-based organizations and cure violence groups to do this. We need answers now @NYCMayor https://t.co/EvPvdTIkLw

As a NY State legislator, I think it is important in a time like this that we dont just talk the talk but we also walk the walk. Repealing 50-A and passing my bill to ban racial profiling done by law enforcement must happen ASAP!! #WeCantBreathe #allfour #BlackLivesMatter

Today I honored the owner of Manna's in Harlem for her service to the community -- Ms. Betty Park. We rallied with local clergy members in support of Betty to end violence against the Asian community. This violence must stop now, it's on ALL of us to stand up. https://t.co/zEE24cdzNX
