Asher’s Choice for Activist of the Year

I have two choices for Activist of the Year! 

First I want to recognize Dayna Lazarus for her tireless efforts to advocate for equitable transit and social justice. Our community is stronger thanks to her work! 

My second choice honors Glen Eich for his outstanding job in galvanizing the “Ybor 6” to oppose the Rays Stadium being built in Ybor — his efforts helped to save historic Ybor from becoming drowned in commercialist chaos. Thank you Dayna and Glen!

2018 Tampa Activist Of The Year: TheZulema Ramos

Zulema and I met when they started coming to climate justice meetings. Their energy drew me in immediately. From the day I met them, they have been consistent, kind, open, dedicated, and extremely active in the community - all while going to college! One thing about Z that make them truly a model for other activists is that that their personality is genuinely kind and uplifting. They understand that in this work, we have to support each other, encourage each other, and create an atmosphere

 of mutual respect.

 Another thing about Z that I reflect upon at times is that they deeply understand intersectionality in a way that motivates them to show up for every marginalized person, plant, animal and community whenever they have a spare moment. Finally, Z is someone you can count on. Even if they aren't able to make it to your event, they will always respond to your text with appreciation and an eagerness to learn more. We are so lucky that Z is in our community and is dedicated to empowering the marginalized, oppressed, working and non-working class of Tampa Bay. We love you Zulema - take care of yourself, don't work too hard, and take some time for yourself to just relax and eat dank vegan food in your pjs!

National Housing Week Press Conference in Tampa

Saturday, May 5th
 11:00 AM to 11:45 AM

Tampa residents are coming together on May 5th to hold a press conference to demand that local electoral candidates make affordable housing a priority. This press conference is one of many actions around the country demanding action on affordable housing as part of National Housing Week (May 1-8), first started by the nonprofit organization Our Homes Our Voices.

Here in Tampa, development is at an all-time high, but affordable housing is not a priority of developers, nor most of our current elected leaders. An increasing number of people, including veterans, nurses, teachers, and students, are competing for a shrinking pool of affordable housing units. Workers need a place to live that is close to their jobs. This is particularly true in a city with dismal public transit options.

Over 1,000 units of affordable housing have been torn down in the downtown Tampa area in the past 5 years, but developers are not required to replace what they destroy. Common sense policies should be passed that require developers to build at least as many affordable housing units that they remove. Election season is right around the corner. Leaders at all levels of local government must recognize the importance of affordable housing to the economic and social vitality of our city, and must make regulations that facilitate the development of affordable housing a reality.

Who: Our Homes Our Voices, Transit Now Tampa Bay, Organize Florida, Hillsborough Community Protection Coalition, Sex Worker Solidarity Network, Poor People's Economic Human Rights Campaign, Sky White for Board of County Commission

Where: Sidewalk in front of vacated North Blvd. Homes affordable housing complex at intersection of Main Street and Willow Avenue

Local Badass Dayna Lazarus

One of our greatest committed young activist told right wing candidate for governor Gwen Graham what most of us are thinking.
-----------
"So basically I told gubernatorial candidate and FL Democratic Party keynote speaker at tonight's fundraiser Gwen Graham that she's not progressive enough, that her speech was uninspiring, and that I'm worried that she's going to hand-deliver Florida another Republican Governor." here
