To Be Fair: Brooklyn Critical Mass Bike Ride
08.07.2005 - 19:00
I publicized the Manhattan Critical Mass event earlier. Critical Mass is a monthly celebration of bicycles and other nonpolluting means of transportation, exercising our right to the road. Critical Mass is a movement, not an organization; no two riders participate for exactly the same reason. New York City's first Critical Mass was in 1993.
Critical Mass has also become an expression of Free Speech and Freedom of Assembly. Since they rode in protest of the Republican Convention, Mayor Bloomberg has been taking revenge on the Manhattan events by arresting participants.
But you can still stand up for our rights without getting arrested. There are also Brooklyn Critical Mass bike rides that as far as I know are not being targeted by Bloomberg.
