Healthcare is a human right!

Healthcare is a human right! Come out to support our comrades in People’s Progressive Caucus of Miami-Dade at this action.

NextSource Biotechnology is a Miami-based pharmaceutical firm that has increased prices on a life-saving cancer drug 1400% since 2013.

We will not stand for this exploitation. We will be holding a die-in in front of NextSource CEO Robert DiCrisci’s luxury condo. We will gather in public space, on the sidewalk, and at once we will collapse in symbolic death, to show DiCrisci what his predatory and extortionate management do to real people.

LOCATION:
Brickell Park Path is located on the east side of Brickell Avenue just south of 5th Street. Here is a Google Maps of the location: https://goo.gl/maps/v3xpYenhYGs

ARRIVAL:
It’s Brickell, so parking will be terrible. This area has been explicitly designed to keep people away who don’t live there or are spending money, so consider carpooling, taking a Lyft, or public transportation.

PLAN:
We will start gathering at the Park at 1:30. We’ll make sure everyone has a brief overview of the plan, and then at 1:50 we will walk to DiCrisci’s condo at 1111 Brickell Bay Drive.
