Protest the Brooklyn Museum's Bruce Ratner Celebration - An Affront to Brooklyn's Communities

BMA.jpg

From Develop Don't Destroy Brooklyn:
Join your friends, neighbors and the Brooklyn community to protest the Museum’s insensitivity to all those whose lives have been, and would be, turned upside down by Ratner’s Atlantic Yards – a project that has become the national posterchild for bad development.

Bring your signs and friends.

Where: Brooklyn Museum of Art, 200 Eastern Parkway at Washington Avenue, Brooklyn, New York

When: Thursday, April 3, 2008 - 6:30 PM

We don’t question the Museum’s right to raise funds to support itself. We don’t even question the Museum accepting donations from Bruce Ratner. What we do take issue with is honoring and celebrating Bruce Ratner in light of what he has done and proposes to do to Brooklyn’s communities.
