Yes, I'll accompany my neighbor.
This form is for New Yorkers who are willing to accompany their neighbors on their commute in light of recent harassment and threats toward people of color, LGBTQ folks, and Muslims. A Trump presidency may also mean harassment toward women and people of disabilities, and we want to provide accompaniment wherever is needed. Your information will not be shared publicly. If someone requests accompaniment, your email may be shared with the requester should the needs and your offer align.  

UPDATE: WOW. The response to this form has been INCREDIBLE. For those who are just now signing up - a little context. I created this form at Midnight on Thursday after election day, for the 30-40 people in my friend circles who I figured would be willing to respond to the one request I had received for accompaniment. This list is now 5,500 people as of this writing, so for those signing up - it is more likely than not that we have more folks offering to accompany than those who are requesting. That said, it is CLEAR that you all want to find a way to support and protect your neighbors. By putting your name on this list, you will receive a few (I promise, just a few) ways to invest your energy and resources in the event that you never get tapped for accompaniment.

IF YOU OR ANYONE YOU KNOW NEEDS ACCOMPANIMENT: please email accompany.my.neighbor@gmail.com, with "ACCOMPANIMENT REQUEST" in subject line. Do not give your personal information, but instead include: neighborhood commuting from, neighborhood commuting to, time accompaniment is needed, train line, and preference of who you would feel most comfortable commuting with. Please indicate if you need a accompaniment both ways.

We have a long fight ahead of us, and are going to need to find ways to support and protect our neighbors not only in the first few days of a Trump presidency, but for the next 4-8 years. Stay engaged, stay activated. We need all hands on deck
