Here are the upcoming actions that Rise and Resist in participating in or organizing (there are also a lot of other demonstrations in the planning stages):
Also a reminder that the RAR general meeting on January 20th is a hybrid – which means you can come in person to the Center (208 West 13th St.) or attend on zoom.
Monday, January 19, 10AM rally and march
Cadman Plaza Brooklyn
MLK & Renee Justice Now
Look for the ICE OUT OF NY banner and our signs. We will have a contingent at the march.
Tuesday, January 20, 12noon-1PM (every Tuesday)
Fox “News” Headquarters 47th & 6th
Truth Tuesday
Join us outside Fox. Fox is repeating Trump’s lies about Minnesota, Somali-Americans, Renee Good’s murder, and Immigration. We will speak the truth about who ICE is, what they are doing, and why we need to get them out of our cities.
THURSDAY, January 22, 12noon-1PM (every Thursday)
26 Federal Plaza (Worth St. Entrance between Broadway and Lafayette)
Immigration Vigil
Join us outside the Federal Building (Immigration Courts, DHS, and ICE offices) to protest the detention and deportations of people who have migrated to the U.S. This is a silent vigil with very strong banners and signage. This is a weekly action and is rain or shine. If you are coming, this block is extremely windy and cold in winter, so dress warmly!
SUNDAY, JANUARY 25, 1PM-2PM
Trump Tower (56th St.-5th Avenue)
ABOLISH ICE! How Many More Have To Die?
Protest outside Trump Tower – the focus will be on Trump’s illegal actions that violate the constitution, especially what ICE and other Federal Agents are doing in Minnesota. We will also be calling for Trump to be Impeached, Convicted, and Removed.
