How to Document Police & ICE Activity
Fighting gentrification & holding police accountable
Fighting gentrification & holding police accountable
Equality for Flatbush (E4F) is a Black Lives Matter organization that has fought gentrification, displacement and police violence in Brooklyn, NY since 2013. We have only two goals: to end NYPD murders and to stop the displacement of low-to-middle income people from Brooklyn, NY. Led by Black and Brown lifelong and longtime New Yorkers, E4F believes in the abolition of the police, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and prisons.
E4F is a member-led grassroots organization of largely Black Caribbean women migrants and descendants of migrants of color. We have an holistic, trauma-informed approach to organizing that is steeped in the principles of demonstrating “revolutionary love,” practicing kindness, being relentless, and “having each other’s backs.” We organize our communities for social justice and change through street outreach, social media campaigns, as well as political and direct action.
Accomplishments from Past Years
#ThisIsFlatbush
A campaign against the corporate re-branding of Flatbush, East Flatbush and Crown Heights
VIDEO Documentary short taking aim at the corporate rebranding of Flatbush through a compilation of interviews with longtime residents, new residents, activists and a professor of urban planning.
In This is Flatbush, the people of the central Brooklyn neighborhood of talk about parts of the neighborhood they’ve long known as Flatbush and the very recent appearance of “Prospect Lefferts Gardens” and “Ditmas Park” on maps. Residents also discuss their fears of losing their homes due to skyrocketing rents as well as how gentrification threatens to destroy the very identity of this largely low-to-middle income migrant community of color.
