    Things are going to keep getting worse for at least the next 21 months. It’s critical to find a place within yourself that empowers you to observe without absorbing. (I say this to myself too.) This is hard. You are not crazy. You are not alone. We are our greatest strength.

    By 1991, Trump's losses had grown to nearly $418 million, accounting for fully 1 percent of all the losses that the IRS reported had been declared by individual taxpayers that year. No wonder he doesn't want the American people to see his tax returns.

    Thank you, , for all of your support. And, yes, we must--and will--figure out a long term funding and operating strategy that will make us sustainable. Onward!

    The Heritage Center is an important part of our collective history, which is why it’s been so difficult to see the struggles they’ve faced in recent years. It’s heartening to see hundreds coming together to help Weeksville in its hour of need.

    So much of African-American history has been lost, either by purposeful destruction, or.... actually that’s most of it. But here we have a situation, where through our own will, we can preserve some of that history. Join me Tizku l’mitzvos

    Thank you, Kaitlyn! 🙏🏽

    Please donate to Heritage Center, which tells the history of a free black community founded in 1838 in Central Brooklyn, that had its own school, newspaper, churches and was a hotbed of black political organizing and wealth building
