NEW YORK — Jean Kennedy Smith, the youngest sister and last surviving sibling of President John F. Kennedy, died at 92, her daughter confirmed to the New York Times. Smith died Wednesday at her Manhattan home, her daughter Kym told the Times. Smith served as ambassador to Ireland for five years under President Bill Clinton. She also founded an arts education program that supports artists with physical or mental disabilities. She was the eighth of nine children born to Joseph P. and Rose Kennedy, and she tragically outlived several of them by decades. 564

New research shows women are more optimistic about aging and retirement than ever.Jane Lafave is using retirement to follow her passion. She volunteers at a refugee resettlement agency, making sure people are prepared when applying for jobs.Ironically, it took her leaving her job, to be able to do this.“My whole career really was balancing my children and my husband, you know, my work and all that kind of thing,” Lafave says.Lafave spent decades working as a certified public accountant, and she retired at the age of 57.“It was just time,” she says. “I needed more time and space in my life to do things other than work.That led her to the Ignatian Volunteer Corps, which placed her at the African Community Center.For two days a week, she helps refugees adjust to life in a new country.“This is just a great gift for me to serve other people who have had a much harder life than I’ve had,” Lafave says.Lafave isn't alone.A new survey from TD Ameritrade found women are increasingly viewing their retirement years with optimism.“The Women and Aging Survey” found 62 percent of women said retirement will be, "the most liberating phase of my life," and 72 percent said after years of focusing on others, aging finally gives them an, "opportunity to focus on myself." Eighty-three percent said aging provides a fresh chance to "reach new goals."Nearly 9 of 10 women surveyed said, 'it's important to me to retain a sense of higher purpose as I age.“I feel that this is my time in life to give back,” Lafave says.That's what she is doing here.“I think that's one of the gifts of age is that we've become much more aware of purpose and the time is short and we need to use it.” 1686

NEW YORK, N.Y. -- The New York Police Department has launched a first-of-its-kind task force to tackle the rise in hate crimes committed against Asian Americans amid the COVID-19 pandemic.“I’m from Malaysia but I’ve been here 30 some years,” Mei Chau explained from her loft apartment in New York City.Chau is a chef and owner of Aux Epices, a French Malaysian restaurant in New York’s Chinatown. “It’s actually a French name. It’s called with spice.”Due to COVID-19, regulations and a lack of tourists, Chau was forced to close her doors in June.“At the same time, I'm also glad that I closed because of the difficulty that I have to face,” she explained. Aux Epices is just one of the many businesses lining Chinatown’s streets that’s been hit hard, in more ways than one.“When the first news came out saying, Oh this came from China, of course right away we’re like, oh is this going to affect us?” Chau explained. “And of course it affected us.”Chau says businesses in Chinatown started closing, one by one.“As with any pandemic, we have people that would like to blame another group for the issue and this time is no exception,” said Wellington Chen, Executive Director of the Chinatown Partnership. “We understand, we’re sensitive to the pain, the loss, the death and the loss of job, the economic devastation. But we are in it just as much as anybody else.”Chen said Chinatown doesn't have enough visitors to recover. Normally packed streets are empty, but worry over another issue fills the air.“The number of anti-Asian harassment or hate crime has risen since the pandemic broke in Wuhan,” he said.That didn’t go unnoticed.“As far as I know, we are the first police department to have an Asian hate crime task force,” said Stewart Loo, the Commanding Officer of the New York Police Department’s Asian Hate Crime Task Force. The unit was announced in May to tackle the rise in hate crimes against Asian Americans. The agency has investigated 26 cases this year, up from three last year.It’s something Officer Loo has personally experienced. “When I was 7 years old, I immigrated to America with my mom and my dad. When we got here, my dad took a job delivering Chinese food in Manhattan North, and during his time here, on more than one occasion, he was a victim of robbery,” he said. “We had to go through the process on the other side without having somebody that speaks our language.”“There is a lot of mistrust in the police department, especially in the Asian community, where the general public doesn't like to get involved too much even when they are victims of a crime,” Task Force Officer Jacky Wong said.They both explained breaking down the language barrier will help, as it did in Officer Wong’s first case.“I spoke to her in Cantonese, so I built a little rapport with her,” he said. “She was able to give us information that led to identifying those two suspects, which led to their apprehension.”“I’m glad the city is sending out this task force,” Chau said. “I won’t venture out to some place I’m not familiar, because it is, the fear it's there.”Not everyone believes police involvement is the right answer.“I think that the task force might be a band aid solution for the problem," said Jennifer Wang, Deputy Director of Programs for the National Asian Pacific American Women's Forum. The organization was one of 26 Asian American organizations in New York that signed a letter saying they were against the creation of the task force.“The problem at its core might actually be that Asian Americans, we are a community of color and it’s very hard to trust that law enforcement will protect us,” Wang said.“Personally I would have never called the police in any of these situations I have encountered,” said Allison Park, also part of the Women’s Forum. She shared a few of her experiences from back in February. “I was on the subway and a group of I believe to be middle schoolers started coughing on each other and began shoving each other toward me. This really would not have been as big of a deal for me if it hadn't been for two prior incidents I had in San Francisco and [Washington] D.C.” she said.The task force aims to create a better, more understanding culture around reporting hate crimes.“This is absolutely very important for people that are victimized to come forward and press charges, because you could prevent another hate crime down the road,” Wong said.“To change people’s mind is not one day to another,” Chau said. 4470

NEW YORK (AP) — Getting an Amazon package delivered from the sky is closer to becoming a reality. The Federal Aviation Administration said Monday it has granted Amazon approval to deliver packages by drones. Amazon says the approval is an important step, but added that it is still testing and flying the drones. It did not say when it expected drones to make deliveries to shoppers. Last year, Amazon unveiled self-piloting drones that are fully electric, can carry 5 pounds of goods and are designed to deliver items in 30 minutes by dropping them in a backyard.The FAA said Amazon is the third drone delivery service to win flight approval. Delivery company UPS and a company owned by search giant Google won approval last year. 739

NEW YORK CITY — Despite initially saying work would begin Thursday on a large "Black Lives Matter" mural on New York's Fifth Avenue, New York Mayor Bill de Blasio's office has now said the painting of the mural will be postponed until next week.The mayor said at his daily briefing Thursday that the delay was due to "logistics" and that his office will have more announcements about the project at a later date.De Blasio first announced the mural in late June, saying it would be painted on the famed avenue, right in front of Trump Tower. The location selected intentionally."Painting 'Black Lives Matter outside (President Donald Trump's) home is a message to him that, in fact, black lives do matter, that black people built New York City and they've never been compensated for all they did," de Blasio said.Dozens of cities across the country have painted similar murals on city streets, following in the footsteps of Washington, D.C.President Donald Trump slammed the planned mural Wednesday, calling it a "symbol of hate" in a series of tweets.Trump claimed the mural would be "denigrating this luxury Avenue" and "will further antagonize New York's Finest."De Blasio fired back on Twitter saying, "Black people BUILT 5th Ave and so much of this nation. Your 'luxury' came from THEIR labor, for which they. have never been justly compensated.""We are honoring them. The fact that you see it as denigrating your street is the definition of racism," de Blasio tweeted.On Tuesday night, New York City lawmakers approved an billion budget for 2021. That budget cuts the NYPD funding from the billion the department received in 2020 to about billion.This story was originally published by Anthony DiLorenzo on WPIX in New York City. 1752
