Brooklyn
With monthly meetings, advocacy bike rides and local activism, the Brooklyn Activist Committee (TABK) brings people together to change streets on the local level.
No experience is necessary to join in, just a commitment to improving public transit, bicycling and walking in the borough you love.

Every fourth Thursday of every month at 6:30 p.m.
Our meetings are primarily online, but some meetings are in person.

Our History
Founded in the early 1990s, the Brooklyn Activist Committee leads the charge for a world-class bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure in Brooklyn, the borough where bicycling has grown the most. With the support of hundreds of Brooklynites, the Brooklyn Activist Committee members hosted a street rally and a family bike parade in support of the two-way protected bike lane on Prospect Park West, which they helped secure by being an active force in the local community. The recently completed Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway couldn’t have been finished without their help, and the two off-street protected bike lane on Sands Street was built from their blueprint. Most especially, the Brooklyn Activist Committee excels at securing change on the local level: bike lanes, bike racks and bike corrals, from Bay Ridge to Crown Heights to Williamsburg.
