Margaret Kimberley · “Reparations Day” on August 15

The December 12th Movement has called for nationwide demonstrations demanding Black reparations on August 15, which is the 18thanniversary of the 2002 “Millions for Reparations” rally in Washington, DC. Human rights lawyer Roger Wareham said protesters in New York City will gather near the Trump International Hotel and a statue of Christopher Columbus. “We thought it appropriate to have the demonstration near the sites of the most current representative of our oppression, and the initiator,” said Wareham.
