Rebuild Sanctuary – A Tisha B’Av Action on Immigration

Rebuild Sanctuary – A Tisha B’Av Action on Immigration

Sunday, August 3, 4:30–6:00 PM

ICE Boston Field Office, 1000 District Ave, Burlington, MA

Sponsored by JALSA, the Religious Action Center – MA, and Boston-area T’ruah and many other co-sponsoring organizations.

Join as we mourn the destruction of the Temples in Jerusalem, times of devastating loss and dislocation for the Jewish people, and call on our leaders to actively resist the federal assault on the dignity, safety and wellbeing of immigrants in our community. We reject the weaponization of Jewish fear into a tool for dismantling civil liberties and instead uphold the tenets of our faith that compel us to protect and stand with marginalized communities. To rebuild sanctuary in the Commonwealth, we ask that our Massachusetts elected officials– including Governor Healey and members of the legislature– do everything in their power to protect immigrants and build a Commonwealth that upholds the dignity and safety of all people.
