Families Belong Together

June 30, 2018

We are only as strong as our collective communities.

Join us this Saturday to protest family separation and detention at our southern border, the Supreme Court’s decision to uphold Trump’s white supremacist Muslim Ban, the erosion of decades of law that established domestic violence as a reason for women to seek asylum, and ICE’s unrelenting and unrestrained attacks on immigrant communities of color.

During a time when civil and human rights are generally under attack, it is clear that the Trump administration, its courts, and law enforcement agencies are focusing with laser precision on Muslims, Black and Latinx people, and immigrant communities of color. These recent actions by the 1% keep power at the top: the billionaire class dilutes the power of the people by terrorizing marginalized groups and decimating our communities.

Even those of us who aren't targeted directly suffer from the government's actions; we are being divided when we need to be fighting together for our freedom. Trump’s opportunity to appoint another justice to the Supreme Court makes it even more urgent for us to stand together against injustice and oppression.

The preservation of all liberation movements in the US hinges on our ability to act together. We must mobilize, organize, and stand with each other at this moment and in the difficult moments that are sure to follow.

We must fight together for our liberation; we must fight together until we win.

Join us this Saturday as we mobilize with our sisters and brothers in struggle. Look here to find a #FamiliesBelongTogether rally and protest near you.
