There was an Irish Arts Festival in my park today, and I saw the cutest thing — a dance group of little black and hispanic girls from P.S. 59 in the Bronx. (there’s a couple of boys in the group, but it’s mostly girls). They’ve performed at the White House (St Patrick’s Day a couple of years ago), they’re fundraising now to try to go to Ireland, added a couple of hip-hop moves to the routine…

(the tall white woman dancing with them is their teacher; she’s from Dublin, only been in this country a few years)
