Solidarity and the Immigration Justice Movement

Start: Wednesday, January 15, 2020 6:00 PM

End: Wednesday, January 15, 2020 8:00 PM

Numerous international human rights documents firmly estab­lish the principle that no human being can be “illegal” or outside the protection of the law. Despite that, U.S. government policies continue to sanction human rights violations against migrants and im­migrants - many of them women who are disproportionately affected.

This session will gather, educate, and connect Women’s Marchers in advance of the 2020 March to build joint analysis about key 2020 opportunities as they relate to Immigrant Justice.

Speakers include:

Brenda Perez (Local D.C. Organizer)
Marisa Franco (Mijente)
Jacinta Gonzalez (Mijente)
Julie Mao (Just Futures Law)
Nelini Stamp (Working Families Party)
Diana A. Konaté, J.D. (Policy Director, African Communities Together)
Donna Farvard (National Iranian American Council)
Priscilla Gonzalez (Mijente)
