It’s asking New Yorkers, “What does Eric Garner mean to you?”
WNYC

When news of Eric Garner’s death went viral, people had a lot to say: about the New York police department’s use of chokeholds, about racial profiling, and about police brutality in general. Some went to Facebook and Twitter, others to their local radio station.

As July 17 approaches—marking the one-year anniversary of Garner’s death—the public radio station WNYC and the architecture firm SHoP are partnering to offer one more way for people to share their thoughts: a pay phone.
