VALLEY RESISTANCE AND RESILIENCE AGAINST TRUMP

PACOIMA – “It is our belief that together we can end walls of bigotry and advance bridges of social justice and hope. We come out and unite as undocumented and LGBTQ+ because Trump’s America does not align with our family and community values. We will stand up to bullying, a Muslim registry, and the evil deportation machine,” said Jesus Arciga, LGBTQ+ advocate with Somos Familia Valle. “As a movement dedicated to human rights, safer schools, and health equity, we are committed to promoting the dignity and worth of every individual as well as creating safer spaces for all. This march is to show any local Trumps out there that we are not afraid and we will not hide. We are here to thrive. We are here to stay.”
