DEFENDING THE VULNERABLE: Where We Stand Today

 

These are times of threat and uncertainty for immigrants, people of color, trans people, and others who may be targeted in Westchester County. Join REPAIR at Christ Church San Marcos in Tarrytown on the evening of Tuesday, May 6th, for a panel discussion and open conversation about the challenges we face as a community.

 

We’ll hear from local clergy about current conditions and ongoing activities, from maintaining food pantries and supporting trans youth to responding to messages of hate. We'll also invite representatives of other local groups to share their experiences. And we'll offer a collection of information resources regarding such issues as the legal rights of immigrants, efforts by religious groups to provide sanctuary, and current threats to voting and free speech rights.

 

Our two main focuses for the meeting: (1) What is actually happening on the ground, beyond the media headlines? (2) How can our parishes and the members of REPAIR help to defend those who are vulnerable at this time?
