This is one of my favorite pictures in the world . It was taken at a march protesting the murder of #MikeBrown . We were in a residential area and at some point a group of young Black boys jumped in at the front of the march. They were militant, fearless and soon they began to lead chants on the bullhorn. It was amazing for me to march with them . Thank you as always to Enbion Micah Aan for this photo. In less than 24 hours I will be 50 years old. I'm grateful, honored, and incredibly lucky to be one of the older folks surrounded by brilliant amazing anti-police brutality and anti-gentrification activists in their teens, 20's and 30's . It is truly because of them that #Ibelievethatwecanwin in the struggle to #DefendBrooklyn Again I'm asking my friends and family to please help me celebrate turning 50 on 8/30 by giving a donation, $10, $25, $50, $100, $500 or by buying a gala tix for the #50KforE4F campaign : Here are details www.50KforE4F.org Thank you for all your love and support #BrooklynIsNotforSale Meme design by Alex Baldwin https://www.instagram.com/p/B1wRKKRgl_h/?igshid=hqoiaqg835jo

Dear friends & family On Friday 8/30 , I will turn 50 years old . (I know, I can't believe it either) . I often joke that many people buy race cars or climb Mt Everest as part of their mid-life crisis. I instead started a grassroots anti-gentrification / anti-police repression organization out of my living room. As you know I'm using my 50th birthday to raise $50K for Equality for Flatbush : E4F , which we URGENTLY need to sustain our work in 2019. If you can, please MAKE AN ONE-TIME DONATION or Become a Monthly Sustainer of Equality for Flatbush $25, $50, $100, $500 or more -- Every dollar helps to Keep us in the fight against displacement and police violence OR Buy a ticket to the Equality for Flatbush's Dance If You Love Brooklyn Gala on September 7th: See Details Here: www.50kfore4f.org Thank you for ALL for your love and support that you have shown me & Equality for Flatbush over the last 6 years !!! with revolutionary love Imani #50KforE4F #DefendBrooklyn #BrooklynIsNotforSale https://www.instagram.com/p/B1ryJOwAtGl/?igshid=15fuhgyv3o2h8
