Twenty-one-year-old Chloe Jacobs is a fourth generation Chelsea resident. Her grandparents moved into Penn South during the 1960s when the west side neighborhood was still developing as a cozy enclave where poor and working class New Yorkers could thrive and raise their kids in peace. Today, however, Jacobs knows all that could very well end with her because the billionaire developers behind the massive Hudson Yards project want what the residents of Chelsea have. “It is so blatantly obvious that all this project is, is to rid Chelsea of poor people,” Jacobs told Community Board 4’s Land Use Committee on Tuesday night.

August 18, 2025 Eliana Perozo, Next City. Organize! Arts, Displacement, New York City (NYC), Working Class

When Colm Summers stepped into the role of artistic director at New York City’s Working Theater in 2023, he inherited a legacy nearly four decades in the making. Founded in 1985 by actors from working-class backgrounds, the company was the first in the city to introduce sliding-scale ticketing — starting at zero dollars — and to bring professional theater directly into neighborhoods through mobile productions. Today, Summers’ team is focused on creating “non-extractive art” that furthers the city’s social movements. This year, their Stage Left festival presented six plays based on experiences from the frontlines of progressive movements; each developed alongside a community partner, including REI Soho Union, Workers’ Justice Project and Releasing Aging People in Prison.

Civil rights groups are suing the Trump administration for detaining immigrants in a Manhattan federal courthouse where they are deprived of beds, showers, sufficient food, hygiene products, and medication. “In recent months, New York City has, almost daily, seen masked ICE agents separate people from their families and confine them in crowded, inhumane conditions within a makeshift detention facility inside 26 Federal Plaza in the middle of Manhattan,” Harold Solis, co-legal director of Make the Road New York, said in a statement. Make the Road New York filed the suit, along with the ACLU and the New York Civil Liberties Union (NYCLU).

To maximize union leverage, the shops aligned their contracts to expire at the same time this year on June 30.

In a move that activists are saying is an attempt to quell the passionate student and worker movement for Palestinian liberation within the City University of New York (CUNY), student organizer Hadeeqa Arzoo Malik has been suspended for a year. While she is suspended from CCNY, she is not permitted to enroll in any other CUNY college. Malik is a courageous organizer and leader of CCNY’s Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) chapter. She has become a public face of the student movement for Palestine in New York City and across the nation since the movement accelerated worldwide to end Israel’s escalated genocide against the Palestinian people in Gaza.

June 21 was one of the hottest days this year, but that did not stop dozens of immigrant rights leaders of all generations from organizing a street meeting in the South Bronx, telling stories and trading tips on how to address the crisis of ICE raids in their communities. These community members were marking the “Binational Day for Peace and Justice,” a call to action for organizations, collectives, and community leaders in Mexico and the US promoted by the organization Global Exchange. “Since January 20, we’ve seen an increase in the attacks from ICE agents, in collaboration many times with FBI and other agencies, that are terrorizing our communities.

June 23, 2025 Chase Carter, Rascal News. Strategize! Games, New York (NY), New York City (NYC), Unions, Victory, Worker Rights and Jobs

Workers at three New York City-based board game cafes have successfully ratified a union contract nearly two years after first organizing. Tabletop Workers United, which represents over 100 staff from Hex&Co, The Brooklyn Strategist, and The Uncommons, says the contract will last three years and is the first of its kind for tabletop businesses in New York. Ratification transforms the contract from a tentative agreement between the union’s bargaining unit and ownership into a legally binding document. The contract secures a number of critical demands for workers, including progressive pay increases that prioritize workers currently earning the least.

May 29, 2025 CUNY for Palestine, Popular Resistance. Resist! Gaza, Genocide, Higher Education, Hunger Strike, New York City (NYC), Palestine, Student Activism

Starting May 27, 2025, students, faculty, and staff from the CUNY Graduate Center, School of Labor and Urban Studies, Baruch, and Brooklyn Colleges launched an indefinite hunger strike on the steps of the Graduate Center. Our demand is clear: that Chancellor Félix Matos Rodríguez and the CUNY Board of Trustees divest immediately from the zionist settler colonial state and from all weapons and tech manufacturers supporting the ongoing Israeli-US genocide in Gaza. As Gaza faces mass starvation under total siege—with over 300 already starved to death, 14,000 babies at risk in the next 48 hours, and nearly a million children facing imminent death—CUNY continues to invest in the corporations enabling this violence.
