NYC Car Protest to Demand JP Morgan Chase Owes Reparations

The Uhuru Solidarity Movement demands: JP Morgan Chase Owes Reparations!
Jamie Dimon, CEO of JP Morgan Chase: You owe REPARATIONS!

On Saturday May 16th, join a caravan of reparations activists in New York City and Boston who will surround JP Morgan Chase banks and demand reparations to the black community for its profiteering from the COVID-19 pandemic, ties to the prison industry and its ties to slavery. All you need is a car or a bike, we will provide you with banners.

IF YOU ARE SICK OF THE CORPORATE BAILOUTS for the white ruling class banks on Wall Street while the black community is dying at disproportionately high rates from coronavirus, JOIN US.

IF YOU ARE SICK OF CAPITALISM built on exploitation of African and colonized workers with no accountability from the ones most responsible for their ongoing oppression, JOIN US.

We're taking to the streets to MAKE SOME NOISE in a social-distance-friendly car & bike protest past these bloodsucker institutions. Honk your car or ride your bike.

WE DEMAND:
1) JP Morgan Chase must pay reparations to the black community for their historic role in slavery, prisons and colonialism.
2) Jamie Dimon, CEO, must write a check to the African People’s Education and Defense Fund, earmarked for the Black Power Blueprint (blackpowerblueprint.org).

This action is sponsored by the Uhuru Solidarity Movement and its “Make Wall Street Pay Reparations” campaign. USM is an organization of white people in solidarity with Black Power under the leadership of the African People's Socialist Party USA

We will meet 11am at 49th Street between the FDR Drive and 1st Avenue. You must wear a facemask at all times. We will provide you with banners that USM organizers in high-vis gear will come by to attach to your car from the outside, or you can come with your own made from our assigned slogans & print files found at uhurusolidarity.org/wallstreet. When all banners are in place, we will all do a brief conference call before we roll out to review goals, safety and rules of engagement of the protest. REGISTER TO RECEIVE THE CALL-IN NUMBER!

From there we will caravan to the national headquarters of JP Morgan Chase and circle the building honking! Then we will head north up Park Ave to pay Jamie Dimon a visit by circling his apartment to demand that he pay reparations to the black community!
