New York City is the New York City of America.

Concrete jungle where dreams are made of.

No better place in the whole world.

A slight uptick under Adams despite giving cops a significant raise, lump-sum back pay, and putting thousands of cops on the street and in the subway, is revealing

I knew a family that doomsday prepped because they believed that society would come to a screeching halt because of computers that were not Y2K compliant.

They were drinking the bottled water they stockpiled well into 2002

Me as a baby being held by my great grandmother. Her dad, born a slave, fought for his freedom during the Civil War in the United Colored Troops.

This isn’t ancient history.

In 1963, the famous photographer Richard Avedon took a picture of a man named William Casby. William Casby, born in 1857, was 106 years old at the time. In his hands, he was holding his great-great-granddaughter, Cherri Stamps-McCray.

The image amazes me because the elderly gentleman holding his descendant so tenderly, was born into slavery more than a century prior. Casby would eventually live until 1970, dying at the age of 113.

His great- and great-grandchildren are alive today, and many of them remember him.

It puts into perspective just how relatively recent slavery existed. Because as faraway and distant as it may feel now. Even in modern-day America, there are people who have active memories of talking to former slaves.
