To the editor:
I would like to suggest to the readers that they give consideration to one of the less well-known candidates in the city council race.
Mino Lora is a progressive activist, educator, immigrant, artist, and above all, an activist with a great heart.
I met Mino in her capacity as director of the People’s Theatre Project a couple years ago. I was struck by her warmth, sincerity and vision for the Bronx.
I imagine that most Riverdale Press readers might gravitate toward some of the candidates whose names have been in your paper more often. But a new voice who would represent all of the neighborhoods in our council district just might be a breath of fresh air, and I urge folks to check her out.
