ART BUILD! LES Rises for Sandy 5 Year Action
October 20, 2017 @ 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Details
Five years after Sandy, we remember the storm and how our neighbors came together to support one another. Given the hoard of recent hurricanes impacting the Caribbean and other parts of the United States, we recognize the need to rise in solidarity for our siblings abroad, while also continuing to prepare to get through future storms together.
On the 5th anniversary of Superstorm Sandy, New Yorkers will march together to remember the lives lost and the damage incurred from Sandy. We will march to demand bold climate action from Mayor de Blasio, Governor Cuomo, and Senator Schumer. Our elected officials must protect New Yorkers from climate change and mitigate its impacts – especially on already overburdened communities. New Yorkers cannot wait any longer. We march for climate, jobs, and justice.
We are hosting an Art Build to organize our LES contingent as we will be marching from Cadman Plaza in Brooklyn to Smith Houses in the Lower East Side. We will be marching on Saturday, October 28 and meeting at Cadman Plaza at 11am.
