Queens

"Your Terrorists are Our Heroes," say the Islamic Thinkers Society in Queens. See the fine NYObserver story on the case of Kristine Withers, the conservative lesbian after a little set-to with local Islamists.

Also from Queens. Yesterday, Hanna Rosin had a nice essay in the Washington Post about growing up in a poor immigrant family in Briarwood. She also had a teriffic piece in the New Yorker recently on Patrick Henry College in Virginia, which specializes in educating home-schoolers and sending them off to Washington D.C.
