We are disturbed to learn that @CalgaryOpera has removed bass-baritone Gabriel Sanchez-Ortega from future performances of "Tosca" after he unveiled a Palestinian flag during the curtain call on opening night. Art is political, and artists should not be punished for expressing support for the Palestinian people as they face a genocide. This decision must be reversed.

This week, we opened 385 new affordable homes in Brooklyn.
We’ll soon grow the Innovative Urban Village to 2,000 affordable homes, child care, jobs, a grocery store and a performing arts center.
That’s what it looks like to build a city without pricing out the working class.

Miko Peled: “The story of the Zionists is not that they came to a desert and made it bloom — it’s that they came to a blooming country and they stole it.”
As Palestinians say in Arabic: اخذوها مفروشة (Akhaduha Mafroosha) — “They took it fully furnished.”
Cities, farms, orchards, ports, banks, and infrastructure were already there. They didn’t create a garden from nothing; they took a country that was already in full bloom and claimed it as their own.

When JFK ran, they said the country would never elect a Catholic president.
When Obama ran, they said the country would never elect a Black president.
Michiganders care a lot less about how I pray than what I pray for: peace, dignity, basic goodness for all of our kids.

I stand with the brave asylum seekers and immigrants on hunger strike in ICE detention centers in Georgia and Texas.
They’ve suffered horrendous conditions, poor medical treatment, and missed years of their lives without families.
We must close these ICE torture camps for good.
