The Irish Emerald Syracuse city flag is now flying at Steve’s Family Restaurant & Bar — and it looks right at home on Tipp Hill. Just in time for St. Patrick’s Day.
Syracuse pride. Irish heritage.

I had the privilege of meeting with Carrie Valenzuela at La Casita Cultural Center.
I donated a Syracuse city flag in hopes that it can act as a welcoming beacon and a symbol of safety and unity.

This week I began placing info cards in neighborhood coffee shops, libraries, community centers, and campus spaces around the city.
The cards introduce the flag and point residents toward resources to learn about it and access it.
