Red Hook Children to Climate Strike

Resilient Red Hook is organizing a children’s Climate Strike event at Coffey Park, from 12-2 pm on Friday, September 20th, to coincide with the march on the UN led by the Swedish child activist Greta Thunberg. Climate change is an issue that’s even more critical for the next generation, and building awareness and support among children is a fantastic catalyst for change to the lethargic progress of the status quo.
Local schools and organization such as PS 15, BASIS, PAVE, RHAP, Happy Hours, and others are being invited to attend. There will be speakers from local government and organizations to talk with the kids, as well as related sustainability activities like puppet making, architectural model building, as well as music, food, and the offer of a free ferry ride to the city to attend the rally and march for anyone who wants to go.

This isn’t urban planning, it’s a bad real estate deal. We

Gay restaurants were never just about the food by Michael Quinn Review of “Dining Out: First Dates, Defiant Nights, and Last Call Disco Fries at America’s Gay Restaurants,” by Erik Piepenburg

Appetizer I stepped into the original Fedora, on West 4th and Charles, nearly 20 years ago. I was looking for a place to have a quick drink. Its neon sign drew me to its ivy-covered building, its entrance a few steps below street level. Inside: red light, a pink portable stereo on the bar next to a glass bowl of

MUSIC: Wiggly Air, by Kurt Gottschalk

The rhythm, the rebels. The smart assault of clipping. returned last month with a full-on assault. Dead Channel Sky is the hip-hop crew’s first album in five years (CD, LP, download on Sub Pop Records) and only their fifth full-length since their 2014 debut. It was worth the wait. After a quick intro that fills the table with topics in
