In preparation for the US Uncut protest tomorrow, I’ve prepared a fact sheet concerning Bank Of America. I’m planning on handing out these facts as flyers tomorrow during the demonstration. If you’re planning on coming tomorrow – feel free to print more of these out and distribute in order to raise awareness about Bank Of America’s misplaced values.
We’ll gather at the 24th and Mission Bart Station on the street level at 10:30 am.
