A man prays during Zohran Mamdani’s inauguration.
He and his friends flew in from Michigan to attend the inauguration, says it’s an important moment for American Muslims, and that he feels safe praying in NYC in a way he doesn’t in other places.

It's so fucking refreshing, and so fucking cool, to see a politician that loves the city he lives in and represents. Cities are the Real America. Both in practice and in the ideal.
Mamdani: Where else can you hear the sound of the steel pan, savor the smell of sancocho, and pay $9 for coffee on the same block? Where else could a Muslim kid like me grow up eating bagels and lox every Sunday?

I think that, from the very start of his campaign, Zohran Mamdani understood that he could win. I absolutely do not think that he could have predicted that, in the process, he would also end up celebrating Jewish holidays with Mandy Patinkin basically forever

Mamdani: I have been told that this is the occasion to reset expectations, that I should use this opportunity to encourage the people of New York to ask for little and expect even less. I will do no such thing. The only expectation I seek to reset is that of small expectations.
