I’m not looking at this like I’m the hero, cause the real heroes are the young men and women that are fighting in Iraq now. What I did is something that any New Yorker should do, you know what I’m saying, if you see somebody in distress, do the right thing.

Why the title “Harlem Hero”? why not just plain HERO ! I don’t see other people who do Heroic acts get classified by where they reside.
This city is getting more racist as the years go past.
Where are the Blacks in the Bloomberg Administration???
