Our Kickstart fundraising campaign is ready to go!
We have awesome donor rewards courtesy of tons of local residents and businesses. As perks for your donation, cafes and shops offer everything from free cappuccinos and sandwiches to giant cannoli. Bushwick artists have gifted one-of-a-kind pieces, and designed t-shirts, totes, and posters for us. You can even save the life of a vivero chicken, which will find a new home at Bushwick City Farm. And much more!

Your Neighbors, The Bushwick News
For Columbus Day — also known as “Indigenous People’s Day” in parts of California and not celebrated at all in Hawaii, Nevada and South Dakota — I asked residents of Bushwick, “What does it mean to be an American?” The question seemed to catch people off guard, and after some initial stuttering, garnered answers as varied as “freedom” and “opportunity” and even “all about money.”

Wow. What I get from the specimens in this video is that to be American means to be dumb as rocks. ROCKS.
