November 17th 7:30am-1pm

On November 17th over 600 of the most elite real estate owners, developers and investors will gather at the Brooklyn Museum to scheme on how to continue to gentrify our neighborhoods, build more luxury apartments and displace low-to-middle income people from our homes.

Along with these greedy profiteers, politicians like former Governor Elliott Spitzer & Brooklyn Borough President, Eric Adams will be featured speakers. These bankers, real estate developers, and electeds are hell bent on destroying the cultural, economic, and social diversity of New York City.

The Brooklyn Anti-gentrification Network (B.A.N.) is calling on all New Yorkers - longtime and new residents of all nationalities - to COME out on November 17th !

Our neighborhoods are being torn apart by skyrocketing rents and terrorized by police brutality. Low-to-middle income New Yorkers are being priced out or displaced by gentrification while our city is being made over into a playground for the super rich.

We say "NO MORE! It's time to #TakeBackOurCommuniites !"

We say, "Not 1 more person displaced! Not 1 more luxury development, until we have affordable housing for all!”

Whose City? Our City!

BAN is a mass-based coalition of tenants, homeowners, block associations, anti-police brutality groups, legal and grassroots organizations working together to end the rampant gentrification and displacement of low to middle income residents of Brooklyn, New York

We demand that Average Median Income (AMI) is based on the community where housing will be built.
We demand that community boards are elected, not appointed.
We demand a rebuttal presumption requirement in the 197-A Plan process.
