MBP Gale Brewer Celebrating UWS Resiliency

BCR100-PART 1: This three-part BCR episode celebrated its 100th episode on a Manhattan street. West End Avenue was closed to traffic and so BCR took to the street to celebrate the resiliency of our UWS Neighbors as we face-down a most deadly pandemic. PART ONE: Manhattan Borough President Gale Brewer talked about her attempts to guide the mayor and governor to make the wisest decisions for our amazing urban population. Did you know that over a period of time Gale and her husband, Cal Snyder, had 35 foster children?PART TWO: A blast from the past. Former City Council Member, now head of the Freelancers Union Rafael Espinal dropped by, shared a beer, and we caught up with his recent activities as head of the Freelancers Union and looked back on his accomplishments in city government.PART THREE: We talked with two young women running for the NY City Council in 2021 -- Johanna Garcia for District 10 in Upper Manhattan -- and -- Sara Lind for District #6 -- the Upper West Side.Also -- with us were our Upper West Side neighbors on the "BCR Kvetch Mic."  Hosted on Acast.
