PERIPHERAL NEUROPATHY WARNING!
Brooklyn, NY — The most common
method your doctor will recommend to
treat your neuropathy is with prescription
drugs that may temporarily reduce your
symptoms. These drugs have names such as
Gabapentin, Lyrica, Cymbalta, and Neurontin,
and are primarily antidepressant or antiseizure

By Nelson A. King
Newly-elected New York City Council
Speaker, Adrienne Adams has appointed
a number of Caribbean American legislators
in Brooklyn to top leadership
positions on the Council.
Adams appointed
Council Member Crystal
Hudson, the granddaughter
of Jamaican
immigrants to chair the
Committee on Aging;
Haitian-born Council
Member Rita Joseph,
a former public school
teacher in Brooklyn, to
chair the Committee on
Education; Haitian-born
Council Member Mercedes
Narcisse, a registered
nurse by training,
to chair the Committee
on Hospitals; and Haitian
American Council Member
Farah N. Louis to chair the Committee
on Landmarks, Public Siting and
Maritime Uses.
“I am proud to announce our City
Council’s Leadership, as well as committee
chairs and assignments. This is
the most diverse City Council in history,
and each member’s experiences and
expertise will shape the important work
of our legislative body,” said Adams, no
relationship with New York City Mayor
Eric Adams, in making the announcement.
“I am confident that this City Council
will work together to achieve our
shared goal of providing strong oversight
as a co-equal branch of city government
and improving the lives of
every New Yorker,” she added. “We are
unified and ready to roll up our sleeves
and get to work.”
Hudson, who represents the 35th
Council District in Brooklyn, said she
was “honored to chair the Aging Committee
and work to ensure
all older adults can age
safely with dignity at
home in the city they’ve
made and call home.
“As caregivers like
myself know all too well,
older adults are at the
mercy of deeply deficient
systems – from housing
to long term care to food
insecurity to nursing
home care,” she said. “My
goal as Chair is to focus
not only on issues directly
impacting older adults
but also on the realities
facing the ever-growing
care economy that is in
deep need of transformation.
“All of us who are lucky enough will
age – it’s my hope as chair that we do
so with dignity and self-determination,”
Hudson added. “In my late mother’s
honor, I will fight to ensure older adults
are finally prioritized at all levels of city
government.”
Joseph, who replaced her term-limited
compatriot Dr. Mathieu Eugene
as representative for the 40th Council
District in Brooklyn, said it was “an
honor of a lifetime to have been selected
the Education Chairwoman of the New
York City Council.
“I thank Speaker Adams for trusting
me with this responsibility, especially
as the first Black woman to chair the
committee in over 20 years,” she said.
