Our last post was about the variety of students we have in our Adult Literacy Program. In this post we will look at the variety of people that make up New York City. New York City remains one of the most exciting and diverse cities on the planet and it’s the people that make it that way. Humans of New York is a website that documents everyday New Yorkers, like YOU! Check out it’s website and Facebook. The photographer takes portraits of New Yorkers he sees and briefly interviews them. You get to learn a little bit about that stranger you see on the subway, the person in front of you in line, your neighbors, your fellow New Yorkers. Let us know what interesting people you find in the comments sections.

The author of Humans of New York drops all apostrophes and quotation marks to the bottom of the line. Whether this is laziness or trying to be different is not clear. What is clear is that it if annoying. Please stop it.
