The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts, Dorothy and Lewis B. Cullman Center — Attraction in New York

I have no doubt the Sesame exhibit was much appreciated by parents and children from one to ninety-two. But in my opinion holding such an exhibit in an otherwise excellent library was a bad idea.

This is discrimination against the disabled and class discrimination! A lot of nerve you have treating people like this across from a...
