Tsuru For Solidarity
November 16, 2019 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Join them on November 16th for the inaugural meeting of the Seattle chapter of Tsuru for Solidarity, a nonviolent, direct action project of Japanese American social justice advocates and their allies working to end detention sites and support front-line immigrant and refugee communities that are being targeted by racist, inhumane immigration policies. At this meeting, they will give an overview of Tsuru for Solidarity’s objectives, hear from targeted members of our community, and create working groups for local and national actions.
If you’re interested in participating but aren’t able to attend the event on the 16th, please email tsuruseattle@gmail.com.
They also encourage you to sign up for emails from the national Tsuru for Solidarity group so that you can hear the latest about national actions: https://tsuruforsolidarity.

- Close all U.S. concentration camps.
- Build solidarity with other communities that have experienced forced removal, detention, deportation and separation of families.
- Coordinate intergenerational, cross-community healing circles for change from the trauma of our histories.
