UU Justice NC's Friday Action Hour, January 31st at 11:00am. Thank you to all those who made last week's Friday Action Hour by far the largest in our history! This week, we'll be joined by Artie Hartsell, Director of Organizing at the ACLU of North Carolina. Artie and UU Justice NC staff will provide important updates around Siembra NC's work building systems of safety and care for those at risk of deportation. We'll also continue making calls and writing letters calling out the shameful attempt to silence 60,000 NC voters in the State Supreme Court race. Finally, we will call our federal representatives in D.C. to speak out against the Trump Administration's budget and tax agenda. Review this week's resources and actions on our Google Doc, and Join via this Zoom Link.
Upcoming Siembra NC Immigrant Justice Trainings - Our movement in North Carolina is now in high gear preparing systems of safety and care for those at risk of deportation by the Trump administration.
