Inside The Protests
A reporter who was in the heart of Friday’s pro-Israeli and pro-Palestinian protests in Times Square joins MetroFocus to share what he saw that day.
"Right To Shelter" Architect Slams Adams' Challenge of Landmark Housing Guarantee
Just over 40 years ago, 26-year-old attorney Robert Hayes took on a pro bono case that turned into the biggest legal victory in history for homeless New Yorkers. That victory, the right to shelter, is once again being challenged, this time by Mayor Eric Adams. The mayor’s argument: the city does not want to nullify the law but rather modify it in the face of the asylum seeker crisis. As negotiations continue in court and signs of a compromise reportedly emerge, Robert Hayes, the original architect of the “right to shelter,” joins us to discuss the city’s response to the crisis.
