Our Goals:
1. Stand in solidarity and accompany families targeted by raids
2. Peacefully disrupt raids – we will bring our presence, songs, prayers, and bodies to peacefully disrupt a raid.
3. Put public pressure on ICE and the Trump Administration to stop all raids and deportations. These raids violate our values and we will not stand silent when ICE comes into a neighborhood and tears apart families. This action will shine a light on raids and uncover the persecution of immigrant communities in the US today.
4. Raids and the threat of raids send a wave of terror through the immigrant community. Sanctuary in the Streets counters this with a message of hope, faith and planned action in immigrant communities.Public
