This morning we had DIY time to prepare for our Neighborhood
presentations. Our group met up for breakfast to plan, and we made a photo
power point and organized our presentation about the “gentrified” downtown
Brooklyn that we experienced yesterday. We all got back together as a group
after lunch to present to each other. After, we listened to a lecture from the
director of a new IHP Study Abroad program that is centered on climate change.
He talked about how climate change can contribute to social injustice,
violence, and inequalities in a country.
Then we had our first Culture and Society class where we
just went through the syllabus and expectations. For dinner, a bunch of us
walked to Bryant Park and then took a subway to the lower east side and ate at
Katz Deli. Matzo ball soup….yummm. We walked around Rockafeller Center, and
then headed back to the Y for the night. Rooftop farming tomorrow morning!!
