New York City helped my mother become the artist she is today. The next generation deserves a City Hall that lifts up tomorrow's artists as well.

Mamdani’s new education committee dropped and for the first time it feels like NYC finally let the fighters into the room. These are the people who show up tired but still show up for our kids. This might be the start of something real.

But there's no doubt which side he's on.

“Our oil companies”
An actual opposition party would be able to make good use out of rhetoric where the subtext is removed when it comes to putting American service members in harm’s way on behalf of corporate profits. We’ll see if that happens.
