Nov. 30: Protest John Ashcroft

Nov. 30, 6pm

Protest John Ashcroft!

Broadway between 115th st. and 116th st.

(#1 to 116th st.)



Former Attorney General John Ashcroft is speaking at Columbia University next Wednesday, November 30th. In response, a wide coalition of student and New York City activist groups are joining together to welcome Ashcroft back to New York with a large rally/protest directed at Ashcroft's record of civil rights and liberties abuses.
Whether your passion is the USA Patritot Act, the death penalty, reproductive rights, torture, LGBT rights, drug policy, free speech, or civil rights in general, Ashcroft has done enough wrong to accommodate everybody! Come join the fun! Bring signs, chants, and mostly bodies...

Speakers include:

Donna Lieberman, NYCLU Exec. Director

NY City Councilman Bill Perkins (TBC)

Diverse coalition of student activists

More TBA
