All over the city, New Yorkers have been in high gear for the #Sandy5 march on October 28th. From art builds to street flyering to citywide meetings, there have been events happening nearly every day to prepare for the mobilization, in which thousands of New Yorkers will join together and march over the Brooklyn Bridge from Cadman Plaza to the Alfred E. Smith Houses.<\/span><\/p>\n\"\"<\/a>\n

Wednesday Oct. 11 – Citywide Meeting<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

At DC-37\u2019s lecture hall, 80 people representing many different community organizations came out despite the rain to hear from Coordinator Leslie Cagan, DivestNY Organizer Beta Coronel and UPROSE Climate Policy Director Genea Foster on our plan for the next two weeks. We also got a picture of the situation in Puerto Rico from David Galarza, and rose in song with Luke Nephew from the Peace Poets – video below.<\/span><\/p>\n
