A coalition of orgs, in addition to 50501 NY, formed a blockade in the middle of Jimmy Breslin Way to gain attention from the international community and the media during the UN general assembly today.
Their main message: SHUTDOWN TRUMP. Trump DOES NOT speak for Americans. Currently, an unknown number of protesters have been or are being arrested for this action.
An organizer from 50501 NYC: “This administration is funding concentration camps, climate change, and genocide while defunding healthcare and food stamps, all to benefit their billionaire allies. We are here to make it clear to them, and the international community, that Trump does not speak for us.”
