William Kunstler's daughters want you to come out and support their film this weekend Disturbing the Universe
Why would I take an interest....I lived it first hand. For the first time ever I had to reach out and hire an activist lawyer. I saw David Rankin represent a friend of mine that had a series of bogus harassment charges against him. I sat in court as the Judge, an African American woman, said, Not Guilty, Not Guilty, Not Guilty.
I hired him to write a letter and it took him longer than I would have like, there was a typo but I saw the power of his letter first hand as Brenda Ballison for some reason as if it was a mythological story -- was not able to see me as she ran up to express her upset. David Rankin and Mark Taylor were very generous to me and I believe they are our future Kunstlers. I gave David a hand signed William Kunstler autobiography.
I did not sue. There were good people that stood up for me and it would have meant going after the good as well as the bad.
Note: I received an email from someone expressing his feelings about Brenda Ballison....she treats the residents like we are cockroaches -- we are just icky creatures she'd rather smack down than have anything to do with.; completely dismissive of our concerns, dreadful, dreadful.
Well you get the jist....
I have not healed. Post traumatic stressing....I am spiritual but I can't get to a spiritual place. I find myself walking down the street and praying -- the words karma come to my lips as I pray for justice. I do want Brenda Ballison to manage buildings of the most prime real estate in hell. She did not communicate what was happening when we had a terrible water main break and I had alerted the building in advance--I saw water stains and heard noise behind the wall...and than she wondered why I thought the worst of her when she did not communicate as she should have but she did such evil that I predict a biography or a film on my life will reveal the truth and I continue to pray for justice. I made it clear I wanted new management which is not uncommon in NYC. Know I will never live in a Douglas Elliman run building ever again. True to form I did so many good deeds for the people of my ex-building their homes, their pets and plants and got two no honking signs in place. I had found two other leaks prior and the building and tenants thanked me but times have changed....the "new" NY. Many have left. I remember I was able to save Julie Baker's kitchen ceiling, a neighbor of mine...a long time ago...I remember I bought an 18 dollar flash light during the great black out and walked neighbors up the many flights of stairs, helped carry their bags and held the flashlight so they could see where to put their keys.....we have all left or many of us have. I will never go back. How bizarre to have done so much good and never want to go back...do the math and add NYU tearing down St. Ann's, the memory of the parishioner's crying and praying on the street, some kneeling after being turned out..and of course the USPS...with customer service that makes the Mafia look warm and cuddly besides selling the air space over St. Ann's next door to NYU without notifying the State of NY as legally obligated to just like blocking the fire hydrant outside my ex-building. I also always felt sorry for Utrecht paint because trying to load and unload with the USPS parked like a fortress outside but anyone else if they parked for a second would get ticketed. Some USPS would mock me and laugh -- let the NYPD ticket and tow us blocking the fire hydrant. A YouTuber checked the google and he said he saw the USPS were indeed blocking the fire hydrant.
I had to walk down 12th St. the other day to film St. Ann's -- what is left -- like an archeological graveyard -- NYU litters the East and West Village living just a piece...Well guess what, the USPS appears to have stopped blocking the fire hydrant but I am sure NYU, the purple reign of terror is looking to tear down more historic buildings....I just don't want to live near any of them....
After I wrote this I just happen to get an email from someone that doesn't read my blog asking me about Douglas Elliman.
I never understood how important lawyers are and for my own life as next Norman Siegel would step in like an Olympic Gold Medalist sprinter to contact Google's legal dept. as I was banned from YouTube and 28 hours later I was restored with a full apology from Google.
I will go see this film....
