Superstorm Sandy Five Year Commemoration

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 28 SUPERSTORM SANDY FIVE YEAR COMMEMORATION: More than 100 environmental, union, community and cultural organizations will gather, rally and march.

Communities across the city will remember, resist, and rise together.

Five years ago, Superstorm Sandy took lives, destroyed homes, and flooded subways. Like in Florida, Texas, Puerto Rico and the Caribbean, the people hit hardest by Sandy were the poor, people of color, immigrants, and our already most vulnerable communities.

New York’s elected officials must protect us from the impacts of climate change and lead a just transition to a renewable energy economy. We cannot wait any longer. On October 28th, we will assemble and march over the Brooklyn Bridge, and then rally at the Alfred E. Smith Houses in Manhattan.

On October 28th, let’s march to demand a better future.

PROGRAM

11:00 a.m. Rally at Cadman Plaza Park in Brooklyn  (Borough Hall in 2/3/4/5/ or Hight St. on the A line) – we’ll be at the entrance to the US District Court House on Cadman Plaza E with the Sierra Banner

12:20 p.m. March across the Brooklyn Bridge
