There will not be a meeting Thursday night, July 14. Instead please attend this very important demonstration against racist Giuliani and in defense of the Black Lives Matter Movement. Try to get this out widely and personally invite at least two other people! After the demonstration we can come back to the Solidarity Center for pizza and discussion. This is the link to the facebook page to share, invite people and say you’re “going.” www.facebook.com/events/ DEFEND the BLACK LIVES MATTER Movement This is a crucial time for progressive activists standing for unity and for white workers opposing racism to step forward to confront racist Giuliani and come to the defense of the Black Lives Matter Movement. Rudoph Giuliani’s pro-killer-cop rant on Sunday on CBS Face the Nation viciously attacked the Black Lives Matter movement. Powerful forces want to isolate this courageous movement. The media gave his lies endless amounts of publicity. We must challenge and confront this attack to build unity. Let’s Meet At 5:30 pm we will be at 200 Park Ave – Giuliani is a LONG-time racist. While campaigning against African American mayor David Dinkins in 1992, Giuliani led a racist mob of beer-drinking cops who surrounded City Hall and hurled racial slurs and debris at the building. As mayor of NYC (1994-2001) Giuliani introduced ‘broken-window’ policing; backed up cops to the hilt in all cases of racism and police brutality; and insulted the Black and Brown communities. It was no surprise he was an early backer of billionaire Donald Trump. He attacked unions, laying off thousands of city workers, and slashed social programs. Guiliani now defends big business with the Greenberg Traurig Law Firm, located at 200 Park Ave at 44 St, in the Met Life Building – part of the Grand Central Station Complex. Confront racism! Confront Giuliani!
