Opposition has been widespread and bipartisan, including progressives, conservatives, small-business organizations, women's rights groups, labor, and people who object to Wal-Mart's illegal activities regarding immigration, taxes, etc. Wal-Mart keeps trying. This comes from Wake Up Wal-Mart:

In Downtown Brooklyn, right off the Fulton Street Mall, several Abolitionists stood their ground against legal slavery in the United States. Harriet and Thomas Truesdell used to live at 227 Duffield Street, and they hid slaves in their basement. But now New York City thinks its a better idea to destroy this home and build an access road to a hotel and underground parking. But we're going to stand up for what is right, and have a great time doing it. Kakande performs 227 Duffield Street, Brooklyn Jumbie Records | ||

Dedicated to Dunham * February 25, 2007 These performances, workshops, and symposia celebrate the life and legacy of Katherine Dunham (1909–2006), a skilled anthropologist; an accomplished dancer, choreographer, and teacher; and a humanitarian and historian. Dunham studied the African origins of Caribbean dance and rituals, leading to the establishment of a new subdiscipline of anthropology and the development of the Dunham Technique, a dance form that fuses Caribbean, African, and modern dance with ballet, and is still taught today. She founded the first selfsustaining African-American dance troupe. She spoke out against racial segregation and was passionately involved in Haitian-American relations, living in Haiti half the year. Join this celebration in honor of Ms. Dunham’s many contributions, featuring performances, workshops, and symposia with an array of local companies, national dance troupes, and noted educators and historians. Participants include founding members of Paradigm, Gus Solomons jr and Carmen de Lavallade; ASE Dance Theatre Collective; David Pleasant/Now Griot!*; Obediah Wright Balance Dance Theatre; and a special Dunham presentation featuring advanced students from The Ailey School.
