The toxic circumstances of WORKPLACE/ACADEMIC BULLY has been well known for years. But progress for change has been excruciatingly slow primarily because of elected, civic and business powers that be. Elected officials in Albany should know that the time for change WAS YESTERDAY. Please support the petition and encourages others to sign.

The overbreeding and abuse of dogs is out of control.

I am beseeching all fellow beings, please petition YOUTUBE to block cock fighting, dog fighting, horse tripping and other deliberate acts of cruelty using animals as unwitting entertainment, the more shocking and cruel, the more hits-the more hit, the more YOUTUBE benefits with advertising dollars; the advertisers do not realize that they are inadvertently supporting horrific cruelty.

It’s important that half our community doesn’t have to walk past a statue commemorating a group of folks whose aim was to eradicate their rights.

I care about this neighborhood, it’s not just where I live, it’s part of who I am. I’ve seen so much change over the years, but now it’s starting to feel like the kind of change that pushes people like us out. There’s a plan in the works to bring a Hyatt hotel and private athlete housing to land that used to belong to our community. Remember the Robert Taylor Homes? They tore those down with the promise that they’d rebuild and bring families back. That never happened. Instead, CHA and our City Officials are selling off the land to developers tied to elite tennis programs and political insiders. People with money. People with power. People who don’t live here. And honestly? It hurts. It feels like the city is more interested in making deals than keeping promises. They say it’s “development,” but who is it really for? Not the families who used to live here. Not the students whose schools are now half-empty. Not the kids who need safe places to play, affordable homes, or someone to invest in their futures. There’s this guy Kamau Murray,  he runs XS Tennis. He says he’s doing it for the youth, but if you go by there, it’s all elite players, out-of-town visitors, and not much actual connection to the community. And yet, somehow, he’s the one getting city land. It doesn’t add up. I’m fighting this because I believe our neighborhood deserves better. We deserve homes, not hotels. We deserve to be heard, not sidelined. And I’m asking people to sign a petition, to stand with us, because once this land is gone, it’s gone. And so are the families who could’ve come back. So yeah, this is personal. I’m not just angry, I’m trying to do something about it. Because if we don’t fight for our neighborhoods, who will?

Collective voices create power. One voice can spark a movement, but many voices can’t be ignored. The more people who rally behind my cause, the more pressure it puts on decision-makers to right a wrong. This is how real change begins. It could happen to anyone. Supporting my campaign means recognizing that no one is immune to injustice. If it were their loved one suffering, they’d want the world to care too. 

The Harder Hall historic property was documented as sold to Robert Blackmon and several corporate entities on August 30, 2022. A proposal to transfer management and ultimately, ownership of the Sebring Municipal Golf Course and Caddyshack restaurant was presented by Robert Blackmon and an attorney on March 18, 2025. That meeting can be observed on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y7_8DALdxCU with the presentation of the request and subsequent discussion beginning at 49 minutes, 46 seconds (49:46) into the meeting. In April of 2022, prior to completion of sale of the hotel, it is Mr. Blackmon’s assertion that in April of 2022 he had received assurances from city officials that “no one saw any issues with the idea” of this transfer. If city officials were aware of an offer on the table, why then did they expend city funds on improving a course they had intended to gift to corporate entities, furthering a loss of funds to the city? City facilities are not in the business of accruing a profit, but are there to serve the people of the city and county, which it has done for quite a while. It would be good for it to remain that way.

This campaign is important because it gives voice to the employees of Everstand who are directly affected by a sudden and substantial 60% increase in benefit costs. The decision was made without transparency or employee input, creating an unsustainable financial burden for staff who are already underpaid in the nonprofit sector. It sends a message that employee well-being is not a priority—despite our agency’s mission to support and uplift families and communities. At a time when staff morale and retention are ongoing challenges, this campaign is about advocating for fairness, financial stability, and respect in the workplace. It’s about holding leadership accountable to the same values of care and community they expect us to uphold in our work with families. Why should other people join you in your campaign for change? Others should join us because this issue affects all of us—whether directly through higher benefit costs or indirectly through the strain it places on our colleagues, our workplace culture, and ultimately the quality of service we provide to the families we serve. When we come together to raise our voices, we show leadership that employees are united, engaged, and unwilling to accept decisions that harm our well-being without dialogue or accountability. Standing together gives us strength, and sends a clear message that we expect our organization to live up to its values—not just in the communities we serve, but within our own walls. By joining this campaign, you're not just advocating for yourself—you’re standing up for your coworkers, your profession, and the belief that every employee deserves respect, transparency, and fair treatment.

The Smithsonian is an invaluable part of American history and the conservation thereof. A recent executive order threatens to completely gut the Smithsonian and to further overturn true history in favor of biased, untruthful narratives. If the tampering in the Smithsonian continues we could lose thousands of historical artifacts as well as valuable documents and exhibits surrounding American history.

Together we can make a difference. If you support this petition please add your signature.
