This morning, bleary-eyed and hungry from having to wake up early in the morning for work, I was greeted by a wonderful voice. It came from Tim Blevens (sp?), an African American man who stood very simply in the walkway tunnel that connected the entrance of the A train station on 190th street off of Broadway to the subway platform area itself.

I’ll post pictures about that evening soon. -Sierra
