Call to Action for Immigrant Justice from the New Sanctuary Movement of
Philadelphia

What:   Philadelphia Safe Communities Forum with the Deputy Mayor in
charge of police affairs!

When:  Sunday, June 27th, at 2pm

Where:  Event to be held at Annunciation Catholic Church / 1511 S. 10th
St. / Philadelphia

New Sanctuary Movement, in conjunction with JUNTOS and the Philadelphia
Storytelling Project, is organizing an important forum to share
testimony with city officials concerning collaborations between the
Philadelphia police department and ICE (Immigration and Customs
Enforcement) officials and the impact on immigrants in our communities.  
NSM has a verbal commitment from the deputy mayor to attend, and is
working on a commitment from the Philadelphia District Attorney, as
well.  We need to show District Attorney Seth Williams and other public
officials that these issues are concerns for undocumented and documented
community members alike.  The goal is to have 400 people turn out for
this event.   Please join us!





We were about to collect over 1500 signatures for our Safe
Communities petition.  We don’t want to stop here, the petition is now
online.   http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/safecommunities/
