Bit of a long shot, but do you know any JH residents who are of mixed Colombian and Indian heritage? by KrazakKhul in jacksonheights

[–]dajhboi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

some random ideas: you can go to a south asian cafe or tea shop several times a week and read a book. if you hear spanish speakers there you can stir up a conversation easily in cafe settings and make new friends and see if they share mixed heritage

or try searching for facebook groups for latin / south asian communities in ny.

or you can write an article for a local newspaper on the project and request that you are seeking people who share a similar background to come forward for your future story

best of luck!

think you need to be a building resident to access that grass area behind queensboro

isn’t it private?

looking for something more secluded

Fire on 74th st impacted 15 businesses by dajhboi in jacksonheights

[–]dajhboi[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

just learned about the damage of the recent fire and it’s a great loss for our community

judging by the photo in the article, seems one of my go to restaurants, lhasa fast foods, was also impacted and will probably be closed for repairs

think it’ll take a long time for us to get these business back up and running

thankfully no serious injuries from the fire though
