    New York State's Appellate Division declared the use of eminent domain to acquire
    property for Columbia University's $7 billion expansion in West Harlem unconstitutional.
     
    Columbia and state officials have decided to appeal this decision and continue seeking to
    forcibly displace community residents and businesses.
     
    Join other community residents, business owners, and workers, on a trip to Albany to witness the
    Court of Appeals hear the arguments in the legal challenge to the use of eminent domain.
    No forced displacement!
    No hazardous research in Harlem!
    No environmentally unsafe development!
    Allow community visions for development to be shared with Columbia's expansion plans.
