@ethicalnyc : Onondaga Nation territory is home to people who live according to their original instructions among the woods, waters, and hills of their ancestors. The Onondaga care for the land as a sovereign nation independent of the United States — including maintaining all the infrastructure and services that New York State provides to settler communities. That includes operating a highly trained volunteer Fire Department to respond to all fires and emergencies on the Nation’s land and to back up the volunteer fire departments in the surrounding settler communities.As land returns to the Nation as a result of centuries of advocacy and relationship-building, the need for critical land care services like the Onondaga Nation Volunteer Fire Department only grows.Fighting fires requires special training and equipment — and it’s expensive. In 2024 the Onondaga firefighters must raise $230,000 to cover ten protective suits that allow them to fight fires safely. Without any support from the state, feds, or county, Onondaga firefighters are relying on donations to meet this critical need. ... See MoreSee Less

Dear all,

You can read about my experience a year ago at Horace Greeley High School and also the experience of the WESPAC Foundation Board President Howard Horowitz in this academic journal below:

What Israel has just done is, via *any* method, reckless. They blew up countless numbers of people who were driving (meaning cars out of control), shopping (your children are in the stroller standing behind him in the checkout line), et cetera. Indistinguishable from terrorism.

Israel's pager attack in Lebanon is a major escalation for which it will likely suffer no consequences, says journalist @RamiKhouri. "The U.S. and the Western world has allowed the right-wing israeli governments of the last 15, 20 years to do anything they want."

A Senate Republican told an Arab American civil rights leader that “you should hide your head in a bag.”

We will not amplify that horrible clip.

But we WILL amplify the witness’s powerful response calling it out.

Could Rochester, New York set a precedent for public banking across the country by helping to address systemic economic disparities in lower-income neighborhoods?
