Sandy Victims Protest Red Cross Evictions
A number of families left homeless by Hurricane Sandy, claim they are getting a royal runaround from agencies in their efforts to get disaster relief.
A group, representing 120 families who were evacuated from Far Rockaway , staged a protest outside the Manhattan headquarters of the American Red Cross. They chanted, “Red Cross, Double Cross.” Angry and frustrated, they claimed to be abandoned by the Red Cross that initially helped them out with $100 a week allowances for food and Metro Cards.
