Please share this flyer as widely as possible and support as you can. The funds will support some of our close comrades and their family. Our goal is $3K, and while times are hard we would not ask if this was not a serious request. Thank you for all your help.

Jordan Neely, killing showed us that we can not allow the NYPD or ex military vigilantes to turn MTA into a hunting ground. We are responsible for each other, in life and in death. Resistance is our duty to each other. #SwipeItForward @swipeitforward

Rikers action. We made sure no one got locked up for fare evasion, not on our watch. @swipeitforward

We pulled up with over $2,000 in metro card passes. We made sure no one got arrested for fare evasion. @swipeitforward youtube.com/watch?v=9FvRKO87…

The #1 arrest category in 2016. 26,000 arrests and only 8% were for white people. Think about that. This is how liberal cities are built. @swipeitforward

In Queens the police use fare evasion arrests to harass immigrant communities. We can not allow that. We are responsible for each other. @swipeitforward

Wall St. $$$ is powered by the arrest of Black, Brown, Palestinian, and immigrant communities. Understand the SYSTEM. #FTP3 | #SwipeItForward @swipeitforward @decolonize_this

You know you seen us somewhere. Spread the word. When people thought it was illegal to swipe, @swipeitforward corrected the record in order to build a CULTURE of SELF LOVE, SELF HELP, DO FOR SELF, AND RESISTANCE. no fare is fair unless its FREE.

Running around being an activist is not helpful if you don't take time to build. @swipeitforward is an example of nearly a decade of consistent community work to develop a CULTURE of SELF LOVE, SELF HELP, DO FOR SELF, AND RESISTANCE. #SWIPEITFORWARD

These pigs will lock you up for not having $2.75!! #SwipeItForward @swipeitforward

Brown communities are under attack, so what do we do stand up fight back. Police use MTA for fare evasion arrests and to harass vendors these are pretexts for deportations. Immigrants are welcome. NYPD is not. @swipeitforward

Years and years of Black, Brown, and Palestinian organising led to FTP. This is what made it absolutely common sense to resist now. @swipeitforward began as a small trickle then became the flood. #SwipeItForward

FTP showed the city that the MTA will never be NYPD's free reign hunting ground. Thousands came together on one accord and the police was powerless. We will have free fares and end to fare evasion arrests. @swipeitforward

NYPD use MTA as a hunting ground. Free public transportation IMMEDIATELY. @swipeitforward

"We want free transit, not a 'fair fare.'" - Marz (@decolonize_this) Don't let anyone FOOL you. Free public transportation is normal all over the world. Its not a money issue. Your city just likes to lock up Black people.@swipeitforward #SwipeItForward

Real community work is a PROCESS not an EVENT. This is us 9 years ago. At this point fare evasion was the #1 arrest category in NYC. We got to work. Focus on building LONG term, and using your common sense. #SwipeItForward @swipeitforward
