We Are Elmont, This Is America

A series of brief, goal-affirming tweets from We Are Elmont:

#Elmont is home to over 33,000 residents — many of us are Black, West Indian, Latino, Muslim, disabled, army vets & women — "the others." https://t.co/0H1Oou2RXd

#WeAreElmont is an example of everyday ppl rising up to seize our own narrative & create + change in our neighborhoods. That won't change. https://t.co/0H1Oou2RXd

We must unite as one now more than ever. Together, the powers that seek to erase us — must face us. #WeAreElmont #Elmont #HigherHeights https://t.co/0H1Oou2RXd

Our strength is a diversity of ideas, people & experiences that span the world over. #Elmont is NOT home 2 hate, but inclusivity & progress. https://t.co/0H1Oou2RXd

We'd like to create space & opportunity for everyone to share what they're thinking/how they're feeling. Any ideas? #WeAreElmont #Elmont
