Street Activists
UPDATE: DON’T RELAX FOR ONE SECOND
The ACLU won a major victory by getting a stay of removal granted for the individuals who are trapped at airports or in transit, but it DOES NOT end the refugee ban, it DOES NOT end the Muslim ban, it DOES NOT make it possible for people to come back if they aren’t already on a plane.
Celebrate the ACLU’s win, but don’t slack for even one second – this is not over.
Trump’s Muslim ban is un-American, unconstitutional, and baseless. We’re taking a stand at the Tom Bradley International Teminal at LAX tomorrow at 1 PM. Join us! OUR VOICES WILL BE HEARD! #NoBanNoWall
We called the airport police… they’re aware we’re coming. As long as we don’t block doorways, traffic, or travelers we are good to go. If it gets big, they’ll have officers to help figure out the traffic.
IMPORTANT RULES TO KEEP EVERYONE SAFE:
1) This is a peaceful protest!
2) NO handouts or pamphlets. This is a general airport rule, not something specific to the protest.
3) Don’t block doors and don’t block travellers.
