Monday's parting shot



A reader photo offering an aerial view of one of the peaceful protests early this evening... as the crowded was heading west along Houston at Avenue A... this marked the fifth straight day in NYC to denounce the death of George Floyd and cases of police brutality around the country...

  1. The photo is bitter sweet. A literal dark stormy cloud over LES. Sad.
