MARCH AGAINST TRUMP

Bryant Park

5:30 PM – 7:00 PM

Before Trump delivers his message of hate at the UN, let's send him one of resistance. His administration has constantly violated the Constitution, attacked our laws and our democracy, tried to suppress dissent, and treated ethics like it was a dirty word. March from Bryant Park to Washington Square to protest his shredding of the constitution, environmental destruction, racist policies, and funneling our tax dollars to the ultra rich.

CLIMATE EMERGENCY RALLY

Corporate leaders will be gathering to discuss how to fix the mess they made!
