John, you are one
of our top supporters, and today I need to ask you for a special request.
Let me unpack this first, ok?
After what we saw at the US Capitol, it is UNDENIABLE:
The criminal justice and policing system is LITERALLY BUILT to let white
people off the hook, while oppressing communities of color.
No one should be above the law. But that is exactly how this system
operates.
Reform District Attorneys that you helped elect around the country are
FINALLY challenging these systems. That’s why I’ve committed to help elect
Tahanie Aboushi this year as the DA of Manhattan, and we NEED you with us.
[ [link removed] ]Tahanie has a big fundraising deadline coming up on Monday. Can you
chip in
$5
now to help Tahanie raise $100,000 and reform the New York City justice
system?
Look, I LIVE in New York and I LOVE New York.
But New York City is a A POSTER CHILD for how the justice system operates
differently for Black people and white people.
The NYPD — the police force of America’s biggest city — is notorious for
its brutality and racism. And New York is the only city with a
prosecutor’s office dedicated SOLELY to the draconian, overzealous
prosecution of drug offenses. TODAY.
And yet — as the home of Wall Street — major financial crimes by rich
white bankers routinely go unpunished.
Tahanie understands that we have to change the WHOLE system to achieve
real justice.
Tahanie will halt the mass incarceration of children, and the prosecution
of charges related to poverty, mental health or substance use disorder.
And she will hold police officers and the rich accountable for crimes,
making sure that “no badge or bank account is above the law.”
It won’t be easy to win this change in New York.
But, as you’ve shown, we CAN bring justice to millions of people. IF we
show up.
And after what we witnessed yesterday, it is IMPERATIVE that we do.
[ [link removed] ]Chip in
$5
today, or whatever you can afford, to elect Tahanie Aboushi as Manhattan
DA.
Let’s GO!
