Is New York City Still a Middle Class Town?
I'm not shy about the fact that I think New York's Drum Major Institute does terrific work. I'm not sure I want to hear their answer to the question above -- sadly, it seems to be leaning pretty close to "no" -- but still I'm going to attend their conference on the topic on Monday. It's from 8am to 2pm at the Baruch College Conference Center at 55 Lexington Avenue on the 14th floor. Speaking will be Rep. Anthony Weiner, the founder of the Freelancers Union, NYC's Comptroller, the President of the United Federation of Teachers, Mario Cuomo, and a bunch of other folks. Oh, and it's free. Plus, there's free food. But you do have to RSVP.
