Wednesday September 1

More press and thoughts from Mohsin Zaheer (Sada E Pakistan) as well as David Greenfield (City Council) here. My journey started in a community reacting to Amir 'King' Khan's boxing victory as well as Faisal Shahzad's apprehension and failed bombing attempt. External things were a big factor throughout the summer.

Lots of media attention this week. A documentary maker from California, Channel 12, NPR, NY Times, NY 1, and at least one other agency came to the neighborhood to learn about the flood reaction, the Manhattan mosque reaction, among other things. I volunteered in the basement of a popular restaurant and didn't do much else besides. Ate a chicken and rice again, after almost 2 months.
