We are sad to share that Pauline Charles, one of our tenant leaders of many years, passed away on Tuesday. Pauline was an incredible person, a powerful combination of calm and fierce. You always felt comforted and taken care of whenever you were in her presence. Almost every monthly meeting she would bring us newspaper clippings from Amsterdam News, NYT, and every other paper you could think of -- clippings with information about housing in nyc, elected officials, immigration policy, and all the things that she knew were important in our fight. She also loved loved loved to dance. Pauline was such a fierce fighter. We will always remember Pauline's spirit, kindness, persistence, and belief in the power of people fighting alongside one another for what they know is right and just. Our deepest condolences to Pauline's daughter, Andrea, and everyone who knew and loved her. (Pauline, on left, with her neighbors at our 2023 FTC Cookout).

Flatbush African Burial Ground Coalition is calling for more community input & control over this sacred space they helped protect from development!!

Flatbush residents want a collaborative memorial process. Instead, they say the city is moving ahead with little transparency and even less community input.
