Inner City Press -- Reporting and Taking Action Since 1987

Description

Inner City Press / Community on the Move (ICP) is a non-profit community, consumers’ and human rights organization headquartered in the South Bronx of New York City, engaged in cutting-edge advocacy , reporting and organizing in the fields of community reinvestment, fair access to credit, insurance and telecommunications, environmental justice, and government and corporate human rights accountability.

The more recently formed Inner City Public Interest Law Center engages in litigation and administrative advocacy around these issues, including collaborating with or providing legal representation to other grassroots groups.

Click here for a brief description of some of our current campaigns -- some of the most recent of which are summarized on our Bank Beat page, and in our CRA Reporter (both are updated at least weekly). In 2005, ICP is engaged among other things in a nationwide campaign regarding banks' funding of high-cost fringe financiers. See, e.g., the 2004 announcement of SunTrust, in response to ICP's comments, that it will cease such lending.

In terms of international human rights, in 2006, ICP's Fair Finance Watch is pursuing justice on PNC and Riggs Bank, its money laundering for Augusto Pinochet and the dictotor of Equatorial Guinea. Also, Deutsche Bank's dealings with Turkmenistan are also being spotlighted. For more information, or to get involved, contact us.
