Join us for a meet & greet fundraiser with NY city council candidate Jonathan Bailey running in district 26 (Woodside, Long Island City, Astoria, Sunnyside).

Jonathan is a labor and anti gentrification organizer, socialist, and a black liberation activist running in the year of George Floyd. He is running to fight for housing, labor rights, and police accountability by building a movement run campaign for city council.

Through his work at an Amazon warehouse and as a co-founder of “Amazonians United NYC,” Jonathan has been a labor organizer fighting for a just economy for New York workers. Jonathan supports holding the police accountable to the people and is a leading advocate for the elected civilian review board. As an anti-gentrification activist who experienced homelessness during the last great recession, Jonathan has a personal stake in the struggles people face as the COVID pandemic leaves a million New Yorkers with threats of eviction. Jonathan believes that housing is a human right and will not only be a strong advocate for renters and small business owners but will never back down against displacement by the real estate industry.

Join Jonathan for an evening discussing how far we have come and where we need to go with some of the folks that make up the backbone of NYC's progressive and socialist movement including:


  • Shaniyat Chowdhury: Community Organizer from Southeast Queens & former Congressional Candidate for NY-5.

  • Ramses Dukes: VP of Policy at climate finance startup, former Liaison for State Senator Julia Salazar, and Community Organizer based in Brooklyn

  • Simone Norman: Actress, Organizer, Deputy Fundraising Director Ocasio 2018

  • Michael Thomas Carter: Field organizer for Bernie 2016, deputy campaign manager for Alexandria Ocasio Cortez 2018, former communications director for Julia Salazar.

  • James Taichi Collins: Organizer based in Astoria, previously with AOC, Tiffany Cabán, and Bernie Sanders in Iowa.

  • Bilal Tahir: Field Director for AOC 2018 and Jamal Bowman 2020
