Here is my Joycean take on NYU’s Gaza Solidarity Encampment, together with photographs from my Joycean journey around the neighborhood over 4 days.
CCNY Protests
Are the Twenties a reprise of the Sixties? Are the Zoomers the new Boomers. While at City College of New York, I continued to think about the question that many of my peers have asked in the wake of all the ongoing demonstrations on college campuses. I offer my own answer to the question in this post, together with my images from the two hours I spend on the CCNY campus
Columbia U Protests
Last week I made the pilgrimage to Columbia University, which is the epicenter of pro-Palestinian student protests. Here are my thoughts about and images from the two days I spent on campus and in the surrounding streets.
Detained in Brooklyn
On February 10, 2024, I attended what appeared to be a rather anodyne pro-Palestinian demonstration in Brooklyn. I left for about half an hour. When I returned, I encountered a number of demonstrators who had been detained by the police.
March4Gaza
On January 13, 2024, I attended the March4Gaza in Washington, D.C. Here are my thoughts about and images from the march.
Sadness, Horror, Pride, & Joy
Earlier this week I was in Washington, D.C. covering the March for Israel, which drew over 290,000 people from across the country. Here are my thoughts about and photographs from the day.

Chandler Bing
While I was in New York last week, Matthew Perry (aka Chandler Bing) died. While photographing the Halloween decorations in the West Village, I also visited the intersection of Bedford and Grove streets, the location of the building where the six friends resided and frolicked. Here are my thoughts about and images from the intersection.
