We spent some time in what’s called the “idea gardens”, where students collaborate to make beauty together. My idea was to try to fit all the layers […]

Today is Labor Day in the US, and it’s also harvest season. The two go hand in hand – without the labor there is nothing to harvest, and no one to do the harvesting! So thought I’d give some thanks today to all of those people who work hard in the fields to bring us […]

NYC saw a large demonstration crossing the Brooklyn Bridge from lower Manhattan, and a smaller demonstration in my neighborhood of Jackson Heights. The group […]
