Even if you can't make the car caravan on Saturday, pull up tonight!

Tonight at the Indianapolis Liberation Center! As ICE prepares for another major assault on immigrant communities, we need to rebuild the momentum was saw earlier this year in Indianapolis, Minneapolis, LA, and elsewhere. To prepare for our Aug. 1 caravan to Fishers to protest Bovino’s chauvinistic “rally," we need to make fresh materials, from banners and placards to other forms of expression.

Just as importantly, we want to take the time to get to know each other (or get to know each other better) to build solidarity within the group.

Info on tonight's event and Saturday's car caravan below!
