“The street art scene in Brooklyn gets seemingly “The street art scene in Brooklyn gets seemingly bigger every day. One can’t walk down a street in Williamsburg without running into a mural or a spray-painted storefront around a different corner. But street art here has evolved a lot in the past few years as it has been popularized and commodified, and new artists are finding their voices on blank walls across the borough. Brooklyn witnessed a birth of companies dedicated to public art over the last couple of decades, some devoted to advertisements and others focused on bringing exciting street art to specific neighborhoods. The sides of buildings in Williamsburg and Greenpoint are more colorful than ever before, as individual artists are magnifying their work on a large scale right alongside commercial work.” Read the rest of our “Stories Behind the Walls: A snapshot of street art in Brooklyn” article, which is linked in our bio.
“Prominent Brooklynites, in general, have angril “Prominent Brooklynites, in general, have angrily panned Friday’s U.S. Supreme Court decision overturning the landmark 1973 Roe v. Wade ruling, which legalized abortion — a ruling that is expected to lead to abortion bans in half the states. Both supporters and opponents of legalized abortion predicted that the fight will continue in state capitols, in Washington and at the ballot box.” Read the rest of our “Brooklyn slams Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v. Wade” article, which is linked in our bio.
“The Supreme Court has ended constitutional prot “The Supreme Court has ended constitutional protections for abortion that had been in place nearly 50 years in a decision by its conservative majority to overturn Roe v. Wade. Friday’s outcome is expected to lead to abortion bans in roughly half the states. The decision, unthinkable just a few years ago, was the culmination of decades of efforts by abortion opponents, made possible by an emboldened right side of the court that has been fortified by three appointees of former President Donald Trump.” Continue reading our “Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade; states can ban abortion” article, which is linked in the bio.
“The sun shined brightly as Cadman Park Conserva “The sun shined brightly as Cadman Park Conservancy hosted its Juneteenth celebration on Sunday. The event featured poetry readings by Jacqueline Johnson, Deirdre Van Walters and Cassandra Cato-Louis. Johnson and Van Walters recited original poetry. Cato-Louis recited a portion of Frederick Douglass’ riveting 1852 speech, “What, to the Slave, is the Fourth of July?”’ Read the rest of the “Cadman Park Conservancy celebrates Juneteenth” article, which is linked in our bio.
