Describe the challenge you want to address:

Discrimination of culture is a big issue in NYC. It is driving residents our and separating cultures rather than brining them together. Only 1% of NYC's budget is put into culture and arts and this is another problem. Cultural discrimination leads to hate crimes which puts society against each other.

What is the solution to the challenge?

Creating more cultured programs in low cultural communities. Like schools, community centers, nursing homes, etc. This program will make events showcasing the true culture of NYC as a whole in attempt to bring the community together. SO that diverse cultures in NYC can come together and express the NYC culture we all have in common.
