NPR Tiny Desk Concert: Raphael Saadiq

This is possibly the best perk about working at NPR. The music team hosts a "Tiny Desk" concert a few times a month. Today was Raphael Saadiq. You should check him out, if you get the chance. He is awesome. . . Reminds me of Gary Clark Jr., if you know who he is.

Break Dance

20090710_Break_082

I went with another intern to the Hip Hop Theater Fest in DC for the break dance competition last week. Ten minutes into the competition, the fire alarm went off and we all had to leave the building. Thankfully many crews took to the parking lot.

This week I have been shooting on the floor of the Texas Senate and House of Representatives for my internship with the NPR Digital News Hub, based out of Austin. It has been a lot of fun and politics is a crazy world. Here are some other photos...

I have my camera in Dallas

So here is what I found for at The Old Municipal Building in Dallas. as I said in my earlier post, I was doing some work for KERA in Dallas on a story about the building being used as a new public law school. An interesting fact is that this is where Lee Harvey Oswald was taken into custody and then killed... thus never actually getting to go through our judicial process. BTW, thank you Joseph for taking my on a tour...

The University of North Texas System has requested approval from the Texas Legislature and Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board to open the State's first new public law school in more than 40 years. The building proposed is the Old Municipal Building in downtown Dallas, which is also the site of Lee Harvey Oswald's holding cell and shooting.

Joseph S. Nuncio, who has worked at The Old Municipal Building for the last three years, is in charge of maintaining the old, rundown floors. According to the North Texas Daily News, the Dallas City Council approved the use of $14 million bond in 2008 for necessary repairs.

The upper levels of the building were used as a jail cells and housing for minimum and high security inmates. A view from the inside of a padded solitary confinement cell shows the damage created by years of use.

Graffiti scribbled inside the cells of the Old Municipal Building give hints to the history they once contained.

Each year, thousands of football fans converged on the Dallas area to watch the Texas vs Oklahoma football game. Those arrested for disorderly conduct were put into the 'Texas' or 'Oklahoma' cells in order to keep fighting to a minimum.

Someone else has my camera

I was working on a story for the Texas Digital News Hub for NPR, an internship, about the Old Municipal Building in Dallas. My tour guide was nice enough to take my photo in Lee Harvey Oswald's cell...this is why I love journalism. How else would you get to see this?
