NYC Department of Records & Information Services has been hosting a Humanities New York Listening and Discussion program on their podcast series Amended during the month of May and there are two sessions left.
The department is inviting New Yorkers to listen in and add their voices to the discussion to co-create what is described as a more holistic picture of the fight for equality for all women and women-identified beings, guided by scholar Gunja SenGupta.
They encourage participants to end the month on an empowered note, and join the conversation surrounding the complexities of women’s suffrage. They call on participants to attend this Friday and next Friday from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m. and to listen to the previous podcasts beforehand.
May 19 – Episode 3: Of Rights and Wrongs
May 26 – Episode 4: Embers and Activism

Welcome to the Norwood News, a bi-weekly community newspaper that primarily serves the northwest Bronx communities of Norwood, Bedford Park, Fordham and University Heights. Through our Breaking Bronx blog, we focus on news and information for those neighborhoods, but aim to cover as much Bronx-related news as possible. Founded in 1988 by Mosholu Preservation Corporation, a not-for-profit affiliate of Montefiore Medical Center, the Norwood News began as a monthly and grew to a bi-weekly in 1994. In September 2003 the paper expanded to cover University Heights and now covers all the neighborhoods of Community District 7. The Norwood News exists to foster communication among citizens and organizations and to be a tool for neighborhood development efforts. The Norwood News runs the Bronx Youth Journalism Heard, a journalism training program for Bronx high school students.
