Join us on April 8th, 8pm, at C'mon Everybody in Bed Stuy for a night of stand up comedy with our funniest comrades to bully, heckle, and giggle our way towards electing a full slate of socialists here in Brooklyn!
Featuring stand up sets by Sydney Duncan, Sureni Weerasekera, Morgan Bassichis, Christian Divyne, and hosted by Fareeha khan!
Jabari Brisport is the State Senator for New York’s 25th District. He is a third-generation Caribbean-American Brooklynite, child of an immigrant, and former public school teacher. Since he took office in 2021, he's stood up against powerful interests in Albany who only want to protect corporations and the wealthy. He’s fought for the funding, services, and policies that New Yorkers need to survive and thrive.
Jabari is running for re-election because he knows that we don’t have to accept bread crumbs and inaction from our government. Real change is possible when we demand that big issues are met with big solutions. When we fight, we win.
Phara Souffrant Forrest is the assembly member for New York's 57th Assembly District. She is a rent stabilized tenant, the daughter of Haitian immigrants, and a former union nurse. Since taking office in 2021 she secured $410 million dollars in subway repairs, eliminated co-pays for insulin, created the first ever publicly owned renewable power grid, and has kept thousands of New Yorkers in their homes by by passing Good Cause Eviction.
While she is proud of the work that this movement has accomplished since electing her, she is also clear eyed about the moment we are in. Phara is running for re-election because our work isn't finished; to defend our communities from deportation and kick ICE out of New York, ensure people struggling with mental illness receive medical treatment, not jail, and provide universal childcare and healthcare for every New Yorker.
Eon Tyrell Huntley is a lifelong Brooklynite, parent, community organizer, and democratic socialist –running for State Assembly. He's running because Bed-Stuy deserves a fighter who will put affordability first. Zohran Mamdani’s decisive primary victory shows that we New Yorkers know how to take back power and build the thriving city we deserve.
Eon is going to take our fight to Albany as a champion of a people’s agenda — prioritizing quality affordable housing, fast and free buses, fully-funded public schools, and no-cost childcare. He's going to challenge the attacks on our immigrant neighbors and advocate for justice in Palestine.
