YouTube Description
as posted by the channelJoin this Virtual Training with Team AOC and Street Vendor Project!
All across NYC and the country, street vendors work hard to feed our communities and provide us with fresh affordable food, and shopping. NYC alone is home to over 20,000 vendors! These same vendors, however, are often criminalized, harassed, and targeted by police, denied access to vending licenses needed to formalize their business. In NYC, vendors are being harassed in the subways, on the street, and in court. Watch this training on what YOU can do in your community to stand up for street vendors.
This presentation covers the history of street vending, policing of street vendors, and how you can be an ally if you are a bystander and witness street vendor harassment.
Street Vendor Project at the Urban Justice Center (SVP) is a 2,800+ memberstrong organization that champions the rights of street vendors as small businesses to earn a living and contribute to the culture and life of New York City. Through direct legal representation, small business development training, grassroots organizing, leadership development, and strategic legislative advocacy, SVP builds power and community among vendors.
