For Our Fallen Comrades: Bicyclist of New Orleans United for Commemoration and Justice

Critical Mass New Orleans

The ghost bikes scattered across New Orleans stand as haunting monuments—testaments to the fact that every time we engage in the simple, sustainable act of commuting by bicycle, we are entering a battleground. A single careless moment by a driver—whether it's a speeding car, a door flung open, or a glance at a glowing screen—can end a life.

We demand streets that are safe for all users: drivers, pedestrians, and bicyclists alike. Critical Mass exists to declare, without apology, that our lives matter—that our commitment to sustainable, equitable transportation should not be a death sentence.

In solidarity with our fallen comrades, we ride. We ride to resist the tyranny of the private automobile and to reclaim our public spaces. The streets belong to all of us—not just for the profit of oil and automobile corporations.

Join Critical Mass every last Friday of the month as we rise up together. Let our presence flood the streets, a moving declaration that we will not be marginalized, silenced, or run off the road. We demand dignity. We demand safety. We demand justice.
