Where We Live

The silhouettes of the police along Canal Street as we marched onto the West Side Highway, eventually snaking around cars, some honking their horns in solidarity.  I would later see three people getting arrested for nothing other than marching in the street, an attempt to intimidate the crowd.  The arrests were random, unprovoked, and chilling.  There is an electric feeling running through New York City.  This city, she is weary and restless for change.
