Rochester, New York After Dark Main St., Rochester, NY According to the latest American Community Survey conducted by the U.S. Census, the Rochester, New York metro area has an estimated population of 1,057,218. But you would never know it by looking at downtown after dark. Once the offices clear out there are few people around downtown in the evening. At least that is the way it was about ten years ago when I and a few other members of Camera Rochester went out one fall evening to photograph.

A PowerPoint presentation slide listing four stages of "excited delirium." The slide includes four photos of men who seem to be in distress. One is of the actor Jordan Peele with sweat running down his face. Another is a shaky photo of a man shaking his fists, clenching his teeth. In one photograph, a man grabs his heart and is leaning against a wall. And in another, a man is lying on his back with a scared or confused look on his face.

The newsroom New York Focus got access to a Rochester Police Department training presentation, describing something called “excited delirium.” The presentation includes photos of a naked zombie, Jordan Peele, and the Incredible Hulk. Listen to our latest episode: buff.ly/1UWEBgK

Happy Friday Rochester Rainbow Union friends and family,

I hope you’ve been staying safe with the layer of ice we woke up to this morning!

First, a couple of upcoming events! This Sunday from 12-3 pm is Give us the Floor’s Gender Affirming Clothing Swap for youth ages 13-24 and the ”I’m Here” collective art project with It Gets Better.  The youth team organizing has dedicated the event to Sam Nordquist’s memory. Sam’s brother Kayla wrote this tribute to Sam, please show up and continue showing your support to Sam’s family:
Sam was love. Sam was laughter. Sam was living his true self — and the world is still missing him every single day. This event is about affirmation, visibility, and community, and it’s exactly the kind of space I know Sam would have loved.
