Please join Families for Safe Streets and Transportation Alternatives in commemorating World Day of Remembrance for Traffic Crash Victims on Sunday, November 17, 2019 at 12 noon.
As always, we’ll honor and memorialize all those who’ve been injured and killed on our streets (and sidewalks too!) but this year we’ll also be demanding a plan from our national leaders (and those who want to be) to end the silence on traffic violence.
We will meet at Bowling Green, at just steps away from the US Department of Transportation.
Together, we mourn. Together, we remember. And together, we will stand in the presence of 100 body bags to demand our national leaders (and those who want to be) put an end to the silence on traffic violence. #EndTrafficViolence
Sadly, this epidemic is one that unites us all. People of every faith, neighborhood, race, class, gender, age, ability and political affiliation are hit personally by this issue. We look forward to commemorating this important day together — and to demanding action from our leaders.
Please note this is a public event and all are encouraged to participate. RSVP: transalt.org/WDOR2019
