The following report and photos was anonymously sent to It’s Going Down.
On the gray morning of May 17th two comrades in Brooklyn dropped a banner in solidarity with the J20 defendants. The banner was dropped in a spot highly visible from the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway, Broadway, and the elevated J train line. The previous day and night were spent putting up posters and stickers in multiple neighborhoods in Downtown Manhattan and Brooklyn, using tape during the day and wheat-paste at night. This was an easy and fun way to reach a large number of eyes, using just a couple dollars worth of materials. Below is a list of the materials we used for people who want to replicate these actions.
Banner:
one bed-sheet from the 99cent store
a handful of grommets
a couple padlocks and a couple zip-ties
some spray paint
Posters:
some printer paper and a printer
packing tape
wheat-paste
Stickers:
free postal service stickers
a stencil cut from a file folder
some spray paint
In uncompromising solidarity with the J20 defendants,
Until all are free!
