The morning after a bigot set fire to the pride flag outside Little Prince restaurant in SoHo, we raised a new flag. Our community will not be intimidated.
Hate in SoHo: Last night this person set fire to the pride flag hanging outside Little Prince restaurant, causing the front of the restaurant to go up in flames. Anyone with info on this should call the Crime Stoppers tip line at 800-577-TIPS. At 11AM we will re-hang the flag.

I had the privilege of welcoming Remy, a bright young student from PS 11, as “Council Member for a Day” on the @highlinenyc. We talked about civic leadership, community, parks & flowers—and I left feeling truly inspired. The future is in great hands with young leaders like Remy!
