[ Note, this event was originally planed for Tuesday, January 23, but is now scheduled for Wednesday, January 24. ]


From 3:30-5:30 PM on WEDNESDAY, January 24th, 2017--we will organize a noise demo to draw attention to the recent events of racial terror that Whole Foods has sponsored. We want to call attention to these events as a community and show our intolerance for oppressive accounts of racial violence--regardless of the reasons for justification. Please bring any pots, pans, or tools that you can use to make as much noise as possible. We will occupy the space in front of the store for two hours before closing out. This will be a peaceful event unless the safe space we plan to occupy is threatened by any outside forces.

Questions? Email: wassgoodlucy [at] gmail.com

See you there! In solidarity!
