Roll promptly at 1. If you're late, meet us at one of our stops! (see ride description)
End location: Near waterfront
Saturday is No Kings Day! Unionizing is a crucial part of sticking it to fascists and being able to fight back on our own terms, so if you're part of a tenants union, interested in figuring out how to organize one, or just wanting to connect with other activists who are taking concrete steps in fighting back against fascism on a local level: this ride is for you! This ride is for you even if you're not a renter, because tenants unions are playing a critical role in keeping our city affordable and livable, which benefits EVERYONE. We're celebrating the importance of tenants unions and protesting in our own fun way by bringing the energy, a big speaker, and a great playlist on a tour of buildings from SE to NW where residents have organized (or are working on organizing) a union. At each stop we'll drop off some gifts and pick up any residents who want to come along on the ride. We'll have resources for all who want to get more involved in organizing/joining a tenants union, plus the opportunity to chat with other organizers. We'll arrive at the waterfront by 2, and anyone who wants to peel off and join the No Kings rally is welcome to. The march technically starts at 1:30, but with a gigantic crowd it will take a while for the march to fully depart and we're confident that a 2pm arrival will still allow riders to join. There will be more speakers post-march as well. For those who don't want to march, we'll stop at one more building and then end in Jamison Square park for some food (we'll have vegan and gf options) and a final fun activity. WHERE TO MEET US: (please arrive in advance of our leave time so you don't miss us, we won't be waiting around!)
