NYC NEEDS Architecture for Humanity. We certainly need them.<br /><br />Love, C.Foxessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06754083123669916994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1680622593910991248.post-5076210743689426452012-11-08T11:02:07.371-05:002012-11-08T11:02:07.371-05:00Just as in New Orleans, the poor are homeless. But...Just as in New Orleans, the poor are homeless. But in New Orleans their Projects were never flooded. They were structurally sound, built in the era when real materials were used and real builders and electricians and plumbers did the work -- and note, in New Orleans, due to the legacy of slavery, even now, all that work, any manual work, is done by people of color.<br /><br />Here, the Projects by the East River that storm surged so fast and so extensively put 40,000 people out of home immediately ....<br /><br />This is in Manhattan alone -- not including Long Island homeless, and the other boroughs of Queens, the Bronx, Staten Island and Brooklyn. They all have homeless too -- most of all on Staten Island.<br /><br />Last night el V asked an Asian-African American who works in the Japanese market around the corner whether her power was back. It still wasn't. She's in Red Hook (Brooklyn), still without heat and without power. Imagine ... treking in to work here in Manhattan where we've been restored for almost a week (as of Saturday) and it's 32 degrees and you have to go home after a 12 hour day -- to the cold and the dark.<br /><br />Love, C.Foxessahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06754083123669916994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1680622593910991248.post-80167411797797877312012-11-08T10:39:17.700-05:002012-11-08T10:39:17.700-05:00Lovely posts about New Orleans and the election. D...Lovely posts about New Orleans and the election. Disturbing posts about New York. Firedoglake is raising money for Occupy Sandy, and Patrick says Architecture for Humanity is in New York right now. They do a lot of work in the third world, building shelters. My brother and sister in law were supposed to fly to Japan today, en route to Indonesia. But I don't think they will be flying today, since all the northeast airports seem closed. All best and take care. EleanorEleanorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07014586558046317266noreply@blogger.com
