Pictures from December 10th East Harlem Rally Against Displacement

This Monday’s rally against displacement and gentrification in East Harlem was a phenomenal success. East Harlem REPRESENTED: we had homeless people, we had members of Community Voices Heard, organizers from Metropolitan Council on Housing, activists around issues like community gardens and New Orleans solidarity… the Latin King & Queen Nation turned out a massive youth contingent, and a huge crowd of elders came from public housing developments.

As the El Barrio/East Harlem Anti-Displacement Taskforce’s kick-off action, it was an exciting indication of our power and our potential.

Enjoy these pictures, and SAVE THE DATE for our follow-up action:
3 Kings Day March. Sunday, January 6, 2007, 12:00 PM. LOCATION TBD.

Special thanks to Jennifer Wager of Manhattan Neighborhood Network, for taking these excellent photos. You can also find pictures on the website of East Harlem Preservation, here:
