Must read by @ceaweaver of @housing4allNY:

"Cancel Rent [...] should be evaluated along all 3 of these lines: as a messaging strategy, as a strategy to win more funding for rental assistance, & as a strategy to transform the relationship bet. housing & public finance in NY." ⬇️

Cea, No Evictions 🏘@ceaweaver

Some of my thoughts about the last 18 months here in @nysfocus #CancelRent

Once again there is no part of the shelter system that is safe or supportive and every day of chaos further reveals de Blasio's lies. https://twitter.com/thebl0w/status/1420930373706465281

I guess I have to keep writing about how mindbogglingly corrupt Dept of Homeless Services is cuz people keep telling me what they’re going thru. My trans friend told shelter staff that male residents are threatening to sexually assault her. Today a staff member trashed her room.

The transfers shouldn’t be happening at all.

But the level of meanness and disregard people have faced during this unnecessary process is its own story of bureaucratic incompetence and bureaucratic violence. https://twitter.com/taliaotg/status/1420903663392940032

I’m still at 9 Malcolm X along with about ten community members creating hygiene and snack packs. The hotel paused transfers due to the storm and are now resuming again.
