Please, I urge you to AMPLIFY this important story- A Puerto Rican man from Philly, Eddie Irizarry, was unjustly murdered by PPD. Video evidence shows the police lied about what happened to intentionally mislead the public. We need to get #justiceForEddie tinyurl.com/ycxksssa

Erika Duprey Soto, 31, described her younger brother as a doting father with a lifelong passion for motorcycles...He followed her to the Bronx from #PuertoRico in 2015, finding work with the city’s Parks Department before taking a job as an Uber Eats driver.

Today at La Feria del Barrio hosted by @TallerPR! We, Philly Boricuas, had a table and were leading a community survey to learn more about the types of events and resources our community most want. It was so great seeing many neighbors and friends!
