CicLAvia Show Up for Racial Justice: #JohnBrown2017

Sunday, March 26 at 9:30 AM - 12:00 PM PDT

Media Park 9091 Culver Blvd, Culver City

White People for Black Lives is an anti-racist collective of white people acting in solidarity with Black Lives Matter LA locally, and the Movement for Black Lives nationally; it functions as an action project of AWARE-LA (Alliance of White Anti-Racists Everywhere) and the Los Angeles chapter of Showing Up for Racial Justice.

In response to Rosa Clemente's call to white people to march against racism across the country, WP4RJ is organizing an action to coincide with CicLAvia.

This action is intended to engage an audience of white cyclists at the City?s CicLAvia event.

T-shirts will be on sale for (cash, check, and venmo accepted), funds donated to BLM-LA. Organizers will hand out signs and have everything you need to participate.

CicLAvia regularly provides the opportunity to experience an eco-friendly, progressive vision of Los Angeles without cars - one that is safe for those who travel on bikes, are concerned with protecting the environment and want to experience a sense of connection and community. White People for Black Lives aims not to disrupt this experience, but to complement it, by pushing the vision further, asking white people to consider what it will take to create safety for Black lives and to end police abuse and brutality.

White People for Black Lives believes it is incumbent upon white people to confront race and racism, and directly counter white silence and complicity with the current system that allows ongoing killing of unarmed Black people. The collective feels that white people are more likely to listen and respond favorably to other white people. The collective recognizes the inherent flaws of promoting a ?colorblind? society that is all too often the dominant narrative in media and politics, and will use this demonstration to demand a shift in the narrative to focus on the differential treatment people experience based on race.

The action is endorsed by BLM-LA.

We will gather at 9:30 a.m. at Media Park in Culver City (across from Trader Joe's) and march along a portion of the CicLAvia route.

Accessibility: There will be a one and two mile walking option. Some water and snacks will be available, but please be sure to bring some. Wear sunscreen and bring extra. Approximately .3 miles from the metro expo line Culver City stop.

Children welcome.
