Asian American history is American history. Thrilled to join @NYCMayor and @DOEChancellor today to announce the creation of a new AAPI curriculum in NYC public schools. Let’s keep the momentum going and pass S6359A to mandate it statewide!

At 36th Street subway staton Sunset Park, morning after shooting, and trains are running again. Construction workers, carpenters, and Fed Ex worker, Michael Torres tells me, “you can’t let one person alter your life, gotta keep on, keep on going,” as he gets on an R train.

If you’ve been picking up on our not-so-subtle hints, you’ll see that while the Sidecar sign came down, a Rullo’s sign went up, and where our kitchen once stood, we’ve made space for some additional booths.

Walked into the bodega and asked if they sold butter. “Sorry, no,” but then a pause, “How much do you need? Just cooking dinner?”
Love you, New York City.

Idea: a weekly series on @wnyc called “How Do They Stay Open?” in which listeners nominate storefronts that have been in their neighborhood last forever, yet seem to have no discernible foot traffic. Reporters will then investigate.
