Join us for an emergency rally on Thursday, July 2, 5:30 p.m., on the 46th Street bridge over I-35W, as we raise our voices in solidarity with our Haitian and Syrian neighbors and demand NO MORE DEPORTATIONS! END WHITE SUPREMACY! LEGALIZATION FOR ALL!
EMERGENCY BANNERING!

Join us to raise our voices in solidarity with our Haitian and Syrian neighbors and demand:

NO MORE DEPORTATIONS! END WHITE SUPREMACY! LEGALIZATION FOR ALL!

Thursday, July 2
5:30PM
46th Street bridge over I-35MIRAC condemns the Supreme Court’s flagrantly racist decision of June 25 allowing the Trump administration to end Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for some 330,000 immigrants from Haiti and 3,800 from Syria, which will result in mass deportation of workers and families to places where their lives are in danger.
TPS allows people from countries embroiled in natural disasters, wars, and other extreme conditions to live and work legally in the U.S. Trump’s attacks on the program express pure white supremacy and contempt for human life, and SCOTUS has now helped him sign a death sentence for thousands of our community members who have built a life here.

NO MORE DEPORTATIONS!
LEGALIZATION FOR ALL!
