YONKERS:#RichardHaas is an architectural muralist whose monumental trompe-l’oeil works adorn the facades of buildings in New York, across the United States, and in Munich, Germany.

Three murals in #Yonkers titled “Gateway to the Waterfront” were commissioned by the city in 1997.

They depicted semi-imagined visions of Yonkers’ 378-year history. Like his other works, they were strikingly three-dimensional, seeming to draw the viewer into windows painted on flat walls. Now, two of them are gone and the final mural is at risk.

The city of Yonkers has gone through difficult times but has bounced back in recent years, with new developments in the downtown and waterfront areas.

Market-rate apartment buildings are under construction adjacent to historic buildings like Philipse Manor Hall, a National Historic Landmark and one of the state’s oldest structures, built in the 1680s.

What that has meant is that some of Haas’ murals in Yonkers have not survived the revitalization efforts.

Despite receiving a historic designation in 2016, two of the murals he painted downtown were demolished, in 2016 and 2020 to make way for commercial and housing developments.

Those projects have made only limited progress.

The three murals depicted scenes from Yonkers history that include the people and places of the city.

There were Native Americans and Dutch settlers, scenes of an eighteenth-century English village and the historic Philipse Manor mill…..

COMMING SOON: Fidelis Host – Watch For Updates From Brian Harrod.

“The images we’ve seen out of Minneapolis are heartbreaking.

The unjustifiable killing of George Floyd has ignited the long-smoldering tinderbox of institutional racism across our great nation.

From coast to coast, Americans are rightfully outraged at the pervasiveness of violence and inhumanity that exists towards our marginalized minority communities by those who have sworn an oath to protect them.

This past Sunday, I stood in solidarity with approximately 1,000 members of our community who organized a peaceful demonstration in Yonkers mourning the death of George Floyd.

Intolerance, hatred, and institutional racism have no place in our community or our nation.

We must do our best to cultivate a diverse, inclusive community grounded in respect for each other’s humanity. I thank other community leaders and elected officials who demonstrated their commitment to our city’s residents by attending this unifying event.
In New York State presently; residents are prohibited from seeing pertinent information, including disciplinary records and the outcomes of administrative trials involving taxpayer-funded employees.

If we are serious about beginning a constructive dialogue to heal the pain and distrust that exists in our marginalized communities, we must be transparent in coming together with open hearts and open minds.

The actions of a few in law enforcement do not reflect the majority in the profession who display professionalism, equality, and compassion to the communities they serve.
I encourage all New Yorkers to take this time to be introspective and to condemn all injustice and violence in the same paradigm.

We must be as vocal in our opposition to vandalism, social upheaval, and rioting as we are to the plight of injustice against those in our marginalized communities, who have historically lacked the social and political capital to express themselves through conventional avenues.

I pray for our nation’s healing and hope that we can live up to our ideals established by our forebears in our Constitution, to form a more perfect union.”

Congressman #EliotEngel believes all of our children have the right to a free, quality public education. He champions programs such as Head Start to help close the education gap among communities.

School budgets in all communities are stretched thin. Since the majority of school funding comes from state and local taxes, the loss of State and Local Tax (SALT) deductions disproportionally impacts our schools.

Eliot wrote and introduced the STATE AND LOCAL TAX DEDUCTION FAIRNESS ACT to repeal the cap on SALT.

• Eliot has consistently voted to increase federal funding for public schools.
• Eliot has worked to bring millions of Federal Title 1 education funds to our Bronx and Westchester schools.
• Eliot co-sponsored the CLOSING THE HOMEWORK GAP THROUGH MOBILE HOTSPOTS ACT to create mobile hotspots for low-income students.
• Eliot supports free post high school in-state tuition for low and middle income students and supported NY’s Excelsior program.
• He co-sponsored the COLLEGE AFFORDABILITY ACT.
• Co-sponsored the PELL GRANT PRESERVATION AND EXPANSION ACT to expand eligibility and make funding mandatory.
• Advocates taking action to end the student loan crisis by refinancing loans at today’s low interest rates, and ending the logjam of processing predatory lending complaints from for-profit schools.

Eliot says, “Education was the key that lifted me from a childhood in public housing to the United States Congress. Every child deserves this opportunity to maximize their potential and pursue their dreams, without the burden of staggering debt.”

Administrative Law Judge Karen Best is a former public defender and a current public servant.

She started her legal career in law school representing criminal defendants in Nassau County District Court.After passing the bar exam,

Judge Best joined the Legal Aid Society of #WestchesterCounty.For four years, she worked fearlessly for the rights of #Yonkers residents in Yonkers City Court.

Day in and day out,Judge Karen Best advocated for her clients by challenging the Westchester County District Attorney’s Office to be fair and just.

Her dedication and hard work led her to accomplish what many other attorneys could not do, which was successfully securing dismissals of felony cases before the grand jury proceedings.

Now, Judge Karen Best is an Administrative Law Judge for the New York State Department of Motor Vehicles.Additionally, she returned to the Legal Aid Society of Westchester County and she is now the Vice President of the Board of Directors.

In keeping with the spirit of challenging the system and doing what is difficult, she is now running in the Democratic primary because she wants to serve as your next Yonkers City

Court Judge.Source: Friends of Judge Karen Best Campaign.
