The auction is tomorrow and Christie’s still hasn’t backed down. But our numbers have skyrocketed over night and I know that with over 30,000 signatures we can get them to listen. 

Unless we do something, tomorrow Christie’s will sell off over 100 artifacts belonging to my people, most of them going for tens of thousands of euros. We need action NOW. 

If you are located in the U.S., please call +1 212 636 2676 to reach Senior Communications Manager, Sara Fox. 

If you are located in Europe, call Head of Communications Nicky Eaton at +44 (0) 207 752 3243.

Feel free to speak from the heart, or say something like:

I’m one of 30,000 people demanding that Christie’s call off its Taino Masterworks sale. These items are sacred objects which belong to the Taino people, not in an auction house in Paris. For a company that is supposedly dedicated to amplifying under-represented voices, this is colonialism and theft. 

Leave a comment here when you’ve called and let us know how it went!
