DOS & DON'TS

We love these East Village tweakers who broadcast public-access TV shows from their mother’s living room in Alphabet City. They are the real New York, and the neighborhood would suck without them. Never go away, Crimson Bernie! Comments/Enlarge | See all


These “I’m so over it” fashion queens who call models “dahling” while making them starve themselves to death so they can stagger down a runway in a see-through garbage bag are way worse for women’s lib than the Taliban is. Comments/Enlarge | See all

The Iraq Issue



“I’m in the US army and I was in Iraq from April 2005 to January 2006 training the Iraqi army and police. I met this kid in the northern Iraqi town of Avgani. He’s wearing an Iraqi army helmet from one of the soldiers with us. We were doing a presence patrol in town, talking with the locals.” Photo by Kevin Smith.


In this photo, an Iraqi soldier is leaving a house after having searched it for weapons in a joint operation of the 213th Battalion of the Iraqi army and American soldiers of the 2nd Battalion, 34th Armored Regiment out of Fort Riley, Kansas. This photo is from the book Iraq by Christoph Bangert (powerHouse, fall 2007).


“This photo was taken at 4 AM. These guys are my local neighborhood watch and they came to say hi to me by emptying their guns in front of my house at 2:30 AM. We started a BBQ immediately and then got really drunk.” Photo by Yobert Younan. See more at www.2yphotography.com.
