“Billionaires caused the climate chaos, spearheaded the rise of authoritarianism and they continue to profit from our suffering,” @climatedefenders.bsky.social organizer said. “But they forgot one thing: there are more of us than there are of them.”

THIS is how many people came out to demand that we tax the rich to pay for the things our communities need - food, health care, clean energy, and affordable housing. The #MakeBillionairesPay movement is a force to be reckoned with.

In front of apartment buildings painted and graffitied with social justice symbols, a Black woman stands in a crowd holding a megaphone. Above her is a speech bubble that reads, "Make Billionaires Pay! Sept. 20, 2025. NYC and Everywhere. Makebillionairespay.us." At the lower corners of the graphic, text reads, "Park Avenue between 46-49th St," and "NYC at 12."
