From New York, this is Democracy Now.

And the way that we create urgency on the issue of crime is when we have people all across

the world in the streets, in the streets, showing up, demanding change, and demanding a cessation

of what is killing us.

We have to send the message that some of us are going to be living on this planet, 30,

40, 50 years from now, and we will not take no foreign answer.

As many as 75,000 people rallied near the United Nations in New York City Sunday at a

marched-end fossil fuels.

The rally came as world leaders begin to arrive here for the United Nations General Assembly.

We will hear from Congressmember Alexandria Ocasio Cortez, former Irish president Mary

Robinson and Ugandan climate activist Vanessa Nakate.

We will not stand by and let our communities to be destroyed.

We will not stand by and let people's lives get lost as climate disasters become worse,

because we refuse to accept that anymore.

All that and more coming up.

Welcome to Democracy Now, democracynow.org, the war in peace report, I'm Amy Goodman.
