Joseph Rappaport, executive director of the Brooklyn Center for the Independence of the Dis- abled, which is part of an ongoing class-action lawsuit against the MTA, said he’s looking toward New York’s congressional delegation to secure the funding. “We have an influential House delegation, we have powerful senators, even though they’re in the minority,” he said. “They absolutely have to make sure the question of transit funding is at the top of the list.” But “we can’t start by reducing accessibility,” said Calise, who was finally approved by the State Senate earlier this month after being nominated to the board in February by Mayor Bill de Blasio. THE CITY (www.thecity.nyc) is an independent, nonprofit news organization dedicated to hard-hitting reporting that serves the people of New York.

Monday, June 29, 2020 • BQ Daily Eagle • 3 G uest Editorial Opinions G uest Editorial Opinions How Trump presidency has made white Americans more aware of institutional racism By Stuart Miller Special to Brooklyn Daily Eagle In 2014, Eric Garner, Michael Brown and Tamir Rice all died vio- lent deaths at the hands of police, fu- eling the Black Lives Matter movement and sparking protests, riots and calls for change. But the list of Black people, especially young Black men, murdered by the police only grew: Walter Scott, Freddy Gray, Jamar Clark, Laquan McDonald and on and on. It was only this spring that the fire next time arrived in full, when police brutally and unjustly killed Breonna Taylor and then George Floyd. Six years ago, Black Lives Matter was seen by most whites as a radical movement outside the mainstream. This time feels different — racially Author Stuart Miller. mixed and largely peaceful protests Photo courtesy of Stuart Miller around the nation and the world feel like they’re actually having an impact. Police caught on video have been arrested, regulations protecting the police are being repealed, polls reflect raised consciousness and shifting public opinions among white people as serious conversations about taking away money and responsibilities from police departments are underway in Minne- apolis, New York, Los Angeles and beyond. Black Lives Matter has been embraced by much of white America, both on the streets and in the halls of power. Some of this change is because the Black Lives Matter movement has spent years building and organizing; some of it is because the video of Officer Derek Chauvin’s cold-blooded behavior looks more ruthless than the Eric Garner (or even the Rodney King) foot- age; and some of it is because law enforcement has frequently responded to nonviolent and lawful protesters with arrogance and with barbaric violence. But there’s one other factor that has been overlooked: President Don- ald Trump deserves a perverse kind of credit for waking up white America to the devastating power of institutionalized racism and the need for systemic change. Trump has long been the most incompetent, self-serving and dishon- est president (a minority of) voters has ever elected. But he is also immoral and inhumane — not just a bully and a racist but a white supremacist and a fascist. And that has made all the difference. In 2014, it was possible for white citizens to say, “Well, that was terri- ble, but we can leave the push for change to those in charge.” This was not because Barack Obama was African-American but because he was honest, empathetic and competent, the sort of president you’d trust not to burn the country to the ground if you stopped watching the news for a day or two. Of course, that change never happened because of the entrenched racism (inves- tigations have revealed that many police officers are openly pro-Confeder- ate or white supremacist), the power of police unions and the reluctance of too many white politicians to lead beyond their constituents’ comfort zone. But Trump’s support of white supremacists at Charlottesville, his locking of children in cages, his constant belittling of minorities and immigrants (and the media) and his utter mishandling of the coronavirus, revealed time and again his lack of care for anyone suffering anywhere. Finally, in the wake of George Floyd’s death, Americans realized this man not only could not be trusted to lead the way toward justice, he, along with henchmen like Attorney General William Barr, was a major obstacle. His reprehensible language — “dominate” the protesters with “real strength, with real power” and “when the looting starts, the shooting starts” — was ugly enough, but his unpatriotic clearing of Lafayette Square for his ill-ad- vised and pathetic photo op was just the finishing touch. But the silver lining — the horrifying behavior by law enforcement and Trump pushed more white Americans toward welcoming progressive changes — still exists in a large cloud, one that could unleash major damage come November. With Trump trailing badly in polls, it’s more likely he and fellow Republicans will stoop more readily to voter suppression and other illegal tactics. But there’s also a danger if Joe Biden wins and the Democrats take back the Senate. After all, the lesson from 2014 was that having another honest, empathetic and (hopefully) competent leader doesn’t guarantee anything. So it’ll be important to keep any celebrations short-lived and be ready to return to the streets to make sure that change is finally going to come. Stuart Miller has written about civil rights, race, police militarization and politics for the Los Angeles Times, the Guardian, Newsweek, the Dai- ly News and other publications. He is also the author of “The 100 Greatest Days in New York Sports” and co-author of “The Other Islands of New York City.” Other articles by him can be found on Brooklyneagle.com

Monday, June 29, 2020 • BQ Daily Eagle • 9 Judge blocks 25% capacity rule for New York religious services By Karen Matthews Associated Press A federal judge on Friday blocked New York state from enforcing coronavirus restrictions limiting indoor religious gatherings to 25% capacity when other types of gatherings are limited to 50%. Judge Gary Sharpe enjoined Gov. Andrew Cuomo, New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio and Attorney General Letitia James from enforcing some of the capacity restrictions put in place by executive order to contain the spread of the virus. The plaintiffs’ religious activities “will be burdened and continue to be treated less fa- vorably than comparable secular activities,” Sharpe said in his 38-page ruling from Albany. The plaintiffs, two Roman Catholic priests from upstate New York and three Orthodox Jewish congregants from Brooklyn, argued that the restrictions violated their First Amendment rights to practice their religion. The plaintiffs said the restrictions forced the Rev. Steven Soos and the Rev. Nicholas Stamos to either turn away parishioners who wished to attend Mass “or to hold more Masses per day than are possible.” Christopher Ferrara, an attorney for the plaintiffs, called the unequal restrictions “an ir- rational targeting of houses of worship.” “The idea that houses of worship are some deadly viral vector unlike anything else is just superstition,” Ferrara said in a telephone inter- view. “There’s no science to support that.” Restrictions limiting the number of people Parishioners gather outside to mourn a bishop who died in Brooklyn in May.

In an order dated Nov. 5, 2015, Justice Partnow granted LaSalles’s motion to restore the complaint to the court’s active cal endar. On Mar. 21, 2016, Bernard moved for leave to enter a de fault judgment and for an order of reference. In January of 2017, Bernard crossmoved to dismiss the complaint as asserted against her for lack of personal jurisdiction and to compel LaSalle to accept her untimely answer. Justice Partnow denied Bernard’s cross mo tion and she appealed. The justices of the Appellate Division, Sec ond Department affirmed the judgment of the Supreme Court. In their decision, the justices noted that the record reflected that Bernard did not oppose LaSalle’s motion to restore the complaint and, after that motion was granted in November of 2015,did not move to dismiss the complaint until some 14 months later, in Jan uary of 2017. They explained that even if Bernard’s jurisdictional argument had not previously been waived by the filing of the no tice of appearance, her subsequent inaction waived any claim that the court lacked personal jurisdiction over her. Additionally, the jus tices concluded that Bernard failed to establish a reasonable excuse for her default since she admittedly had knowledge of the complaint as early as January 2015 and offered no excuse for her 14month delay in moving to compel LaSalle to accept an untimely answer after the complaint was restored to the Supreme Court’s active cal endar in November of 2015. As such, the justices agreed with the Supreme Court’s determination to deny those branches of Bernard’s cross motion which were to dismiss the complaint and to compel the bank to accept a late answer. —LaSalle Bank, NA v. Bernard, 2018‐06643, June 24, 2020 COMPLAINT OVER RENT OVERCHARGES RESTORED UPON APPEAL Appellate Division, Second Department Angel Santana resides in a rentstabilized apartment owned by Maria Fernandez. In Queens County Supreme Court, Civil Term, San tana filed a complaint against Fernandez in an effort to recover dam ages for rent overcharged, based upon a rent reduction order imposed by the New York State Division of Housing and Community Renewal, effective May 1, 1986. In response, Fernandez moved for summary judgment dismissing that claim, contending that the statute of limita tions had expired. Santana crossmoved for leave to amend the com plaint so as to allege the applicability of a second rent reduction order issued by DHCR, effective Nov, 1, 1986 and to eliminate his second claim. In an order entered April 3, 2017, the Supreme Court granted Fernandez’s motion which was for summary judgment dismissing the first claim and denied Santana’s cross motion as academic. Santana appealed in the Appellate Division, Second Department where the order was reversed. In their decision, the appellate justices explained that Santana’s first claim to recover damages for rent overcharges based upon the May 1, 1986 rent reduction order was not barred by the thenapplicable fouryear statute of limitations and the “lookback rule” precluding the examination of the rental history prior to the four year period preceding commencement of the complaint. They noted that, since rent reduction orders impose a continuing obligation on landlords, tenants are entitled to recover for any rent overcharges oc curring during the applicable limitations period by reference to rent reduction orders that remain in effect during that period, even if the rent reduction order was initially issued outside the limitations period. Reviewing Fernandez’s contention that a prior DHCR proceeding barred the first claim, the justices determined that she waived that defense by failing to raise it properly. The justices concluded that the Supreme Court should have granted that branch of Santana’s cross motion which was for leave to amend the complaint, as the amend ment would not result in prejudice or surprise to Fernandez and was neither palpably insufficient nor patently devoid of merit. —Santana v. Fernandez, 2017‐07703, June 17, 2020
