The document points out the principles of the grassroots movement FTP DecolonizeThisPlace based and active in New York and lists three of its Communique and the organizing actions calendar. FTP has always sided with all those indigenous peoples whose lands have been stolen and raped by colonialist policies. The FTP movement fights for territorial justice policies and against gentrification, economic inequality and police violence; it is independent by any political logic. The movement carries out different actions: resistance, awareness, political education, mutual aid, fundraising, jail support and documentary evidence productions. It does not tolerate any form of racism and discrimination of gender, religion, sex, income. Since it represents a disturbing reality, it has been shadow-banned by the main social networks.
Here you have a list of principles:
1: NY’s subway lines “owners” are Wall Street’s banks, which make their own profit and not of the community. It is necessary to evade the fare in mass to force the end of Wall Street’s theft.
2: Police has been created to crush all voices of dissent contrary to the Big Brother’s directives. The police look more like mercenaries than peace officers and the color of your skin doesn’t help.
3: Many of NY’s roads and subway lines burrow through springs, swamps and streams that were once part of indigenous peoples landscape just for settler profits. Only when the subways leak and flood, they are being decolonized.
Finally, in case of arrest, you can find here your rights!
