“Liberty in Motion: Our Watershed Moment” Standing Strong for Immigration Justice and Dignity

Immigrant New Yorkers help to build New York and at a moment in time when these communities face inhumane treatment, it is up to us all to advocate for policies that will protect immigrants. Join us for the first installation of four in our annual town hall series, “Liberty in Motion: Our Watershed Moment” to learn about the policies that will ensure all New Yorkers are treated equitably and to learn how you can take action to promote immigrants’ right to full inclusion in our Nassau County communities. Topics will include preventing U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) from colluding with local law enforcement, ensuring local jails are not utilized as detention facilities by ICE, promoting access to representation for those facing deportation, and forming local networks to defend our neighbors.

“Liberty in Motion: Our Watershed Moment” is a four-part Town Hall Series centering conversation on the action we can take to protect and promote equity in our own communities faced with unprecedented threats. Throughout the series, Arlo Fleischer, Organizer of the Nassau County New York Civil Liberties Union will facilitate local and statewide advocacy and policy panelists many of whom have lived experience and are experts in their field. The series is co-hosted by the Unitarian Universalist Congregation at Shelter Rock.
