At the last stop downtown, near the South Ferry on the one train, I encountered a group holding signs advocating for immigrants’ rights. I was shocked to see protesters outside Whitehall, as this is my usual route home. However, it became clear that they had gathered to support immigrant vendors in the area, who were facing efforts by the NYPD to shut them down.
Times Square is often an area that tourists worldwide visit. It brings people from different cultures together, allowing a space to share information about social and economic issues, but the culture of consumerism can overshadow it.
This photo was taken in a beach community near Passa Grille in St. Petersburg, Florida, after Hurricane Milton. I was amused and horrified at this sign because of the brutal honesty of the message. This begs the question: What is one priority measure that should be taken to reduce the danger of crime? Is this effective?
