Genuine justice means racial, social, and economic justice. It means safe communities.
End mass incarceration in Queens, make Queens a model for the world. Decriminalize poverty and end racist law enforcement. End the war on drugs, and treat addiction as a medical issue. Decarcerate and restore communities. Center community solutions. Tackle corporate crimes.
