Stonewall was a Riot

On June 28th, 1969 the Stonewall Riots erupted onto the streets of New York City and led to the Gay Rights movement in the United States.  We’ve reflected on various aspects of Stonewall over the years and, 51 years later, our streets are full of protests demanding a change.  As #BlackLivesMatter protests are sweeping the country and state after state are passing legislation to restrict transgender participation as full, equal citizens in life, Marsha P. Johnson (pictured to the left) wants better for us.  Marsha was there that June night in 1969 and the echoes of the bricks thrown still resonate loudly today.

Hoffman calls out both Bookers for silence on the NDAA

By Madelyn Hoffman
December 23, 2019

On December 17th, the U.S. Senate, by a vote of 86-8, passed the 2020 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). This bill increases the military budget to an obscene $738 billion. Senator Cory Booker did not vote. Neither did Senators Harris, Klobuchar, Sanders or Warren. How can presidential candidate Booker speak out in a national interview exactly one month ago today about the need to contain military spending and executive power in declaring war and then not vote on the NDAA which both increases military spending and fails to rein in executive power? This is unacceptable -- New Jersey is the loser here.
