Next Generation Now

Our children don’t get to vote, but they do have a voice—and they want and need to use it.   This rally and march on May 13, 2017 in Cadman Plaza in Brooklyn will be an opportunity for all of our children to learn to stand up and speak out on the issues they care about—on their own terms and in their own words.  So let’s get our children together, from toddlers to teens, and let them lead a celebration of independent thought, community, inclusivity, and their future.

A diverse range of social justice organizations will be joining us for the event, prepared to talk to kids and families about some of the important issues affecting our communities and our country.   We will also have family-friendly activities and entertainment (including music, sign-making, silk screening, and more).

We are raising funds to cover the costs of this event, which include (so far) permit fees,  renting a sound system for our musicians, and (yes) porta-potties for everyone!  Any help you can provide will go a long way to making this event possible and will be deeply appreciated.   There are only three weeks to go!
