About Us
Take ‘Em Down Jax is a diverse group of activists in Northeast Florida, committed to anti-racist action. Since 2017 we have held rallies and picket lines as well as educational events and engaged with elected officials. The results of these activities have been the removal of Jacksonville’s Confederate statues as well as changing the names of schools named after Confederate generals.

Our most recent focus is on redlining and its racist treatment of the African-American community which continues to impact all of us today.
REDLINING:
Disenfranchises African Americans
Limits financial opportunities
Curtails home ownership
Destroys neighborhoods
