Reblogged from Vida London:

Last Sunday, as part of Open House New York Weekend, we joined a walking tour of the faded ads of Tribeca.

On the faded ads of Tribeca tour, part of Open House New York Weekend.

A good 70 people turned up in the drizzle to follow the tour by local photographer and blogger Frank Jump, who since 1997 has specialised in capturing the fading advertisements, or ghost signs, of New York.

Thanks to Vincenzo’s eagle eye, this was the find of the weekend! I love the element of discovery even when you thought you have examined every square foot of NYC.

Dear Columbus – A Letter from a First Grade Elementary School Class

Dear Columbus-

We are sorry that you are dead and we are writing you a little note. Please, Columbus be nice because other people don’t want to be slaves. Please do not hurt other people because they can’t find gold for you. Also, share the gold and the spices you have stolen with poor people. Cutting off people’s hands who can’t find you gold isn’t a nice thing to do. We are peacebuilders.

We wish you would have been nice. The stories about you don’t tell the truth. Please say you are sorry.

Sincerely,

First Grade Class

Children need to be taught the truth about Columbus’ blood-and-gold-thirsty voyages and their impact on the indigenous people of the Western Hemisphere and the people on the African continent.
