Description
Representative Dan Goldman, who represents Lower Manhattan and parts of Western Brooklyn, is facing two primary challengers in June: business strategist Bruno Grandsard, who criticizes Goldman for focusing too much on Donald Trump and not local issues, and political organizer Evan Hutchinson, who opposes Goldman's support for Israel in the war with Hamas. Plus, meteorologist Bill Goodman from the National Weather Service forecasts good weather in the coming days. Finally, U.S. Census data shows a significant portion of the Guyanese population in the U.S. lives in New York City, with almost half residing in Queens. WNYC’s Sean Carlson speaks with chef and food writer Farideh Sadeghin, local resident Renny Itwaru, and his nephew Rylee about the local Guyanese food scene.
