Thousands of immigrants did the hard, dirty work of clearing rubble and toxic dust and debris from Ground Zero. Many were undocumented laborers sent to work every day with no special PPE, and got cancer as a result. Now some of those same people are living in fear of ICE. www.npr.org/2026/09/11/n...

They cleaned up ground zero. Now many are hiding from ICE
After 9/11, thousands of rescue and cleanup crews went to work at ground zero. They were exposed to toxic debris and experienced psychological trauma. Today, many say they live in fear of deportation.

For thousands of Venezuelan New Yorkers, the devastation caused by last month's earthquakes isn't just felt miles away—it's felt here at home. Since news of the disaster broke, I've been immensely proud to see New Yorkers turn compassion into action.

En estos momentos quizá sea necesario decir lo obvio sobre Venezuela: 1) Ninguna dictadura es aceptable. 2) Ningún bombardeo es justificable. 3) Condena absoluta al bombardeo de EEUU sobre Caracas. 4) Libertad inmediata para todas y todos los presos políticos. #Venezuela

Trump has accused boat crews of being narco-terrorists. The truth, AP found, is more nuanced

Excited for @cristinaele.bsky.social's first curated exhibit, Unseeing the Tropics at the @suartmuseum.bsky.social! The show pairs historical objects with the work of Joiri Minaya to challenge ideas of "tropicality." Running from Jan 21 to May 10, there’ll be related events you won’t want to miss!
Poster promoting the art exhibit "Joiri Minaya: Unseeing the Tropics at the Museum", displayed at the Syracuse University Art Museum from January 21 to May 10, 2025. The central image is a collage featuring a silhouette of a woman with long curly hair, where her face and body are filled with tropical imagery: beaches, mountains, and floral elements. Her bikini top is composed of tropical patterns. The Syracuse University Art Museum logo is located in the bottom right corner.
