Queens Rush Hour Resistance
Friday, Jan 16 @ 4pm
LIE Pedestrian Overpass – 61-20 Grand Central Pkwy, Queens, NY 11375
A Visibility Brigade action is a peaceful, coordinated public action designed to be seen by thousands of people going about their daily lives.
This action will take place on a Long Island Expressway overpass in Queens during evening rush hour, when traffic is heaviest and visibility is highest. Participants will hold large, readable signs so the message is impossible to miss.
We are gathering in honor of Renee Goode, and to demand accountability for the harm caused by ICE enforcement. Standing together in public, visible space is a way to insist that these actions are not hidden, forgotten, or normalized.
This is not a rally or a march. There are no speeches or amplified sound. The power of a Visibility Brigade comes from disciplined presence, clarity of message, and the refusal to look away.
Participants will meet at 4:00 PM, receive clear instructions on site, and take part in a coordinated, non-violent action. Safety and collective responsibility are central to how this action is carried out.
