Majora Carter, environmental justice advocate and green collar entrepreneur
Environmental justice advocate and green collar entrepreneur Majora Carter visited Syracuse yesterday and spoke for the University lecture series at Hendricks Chapel. She detailed how cities can turn financial disinvestment and environmental degradation into movements for equality and recognition of environmental assets.
Carter had really good things to say about Syracuse, especially the Near West Side Initiative. Her talk wasn’t very long so it’s understandable that she didn’t address Onondaga Creek or the Syracuse University Steam Station.

I first heard about Carter after her TED Talk a few years ago.
Her organization (Majoracartergroup.com) now promotes micro agribusiness development through green roofs and urban greenhouses.

Carlemo Anthony visits Wilson Park for Courts for Kids Event in Syracuse
When you’re hot, you’re hot.
A swarm of fans surrounded NBA star Carmelo Anthony when he visited Syracuse’s Wilson Park for a Courts for Kids event yesterday. Anthony was certainly the people’s choice in a group of celebrities that included Hall of Famers, TV personalities, politicians, business personalities and former pro athletes.
The Courts for Kids Program plans to renovate courts in Syracuse, Baltimore, Denver and Puerto Rico. Yesterday’s event was organized in conjunction with the Jim Boeheim Foundation and the Dorsey Levens Foundation.
