It's ALL happening: This morning, our group chats and twitter feeds are abuzz with results from last nights returns but today at the Broad Room we're reminding our readers that change starts at the local level. With 2021 on the horizon, we're gearing up for one of the busiest election seasons NYC has seen in a long ass time - and will be rolling out our first member-led endorsement process.
But special candidates and special elections call for special action.
On April 28th, our friends in Council District 37 (Bushwick, Brownsville, Cypress Hills, East New York and Ocean Hill) will be able to vote for your fave presidential candidate AND your future City Council Member. So we called a special internal election amongst our Organizing Committee (our volunteers who make it all happen) and our Board of Directors. The results were unanimous.
The Broad Room is officially endorsing the incredibly badass, truly progressive, community building activist:
Sandy Nurse !
This week, Sandy herself is taking over for a special edition of the Broad Memo. Take a look and take action!
P.S. Our BIGGEST event of the year,
the Broad Social, is in 15 days and you won't want to miss it.
