As immigrants across the country are facing threats, increased detention, and persistent, unlawful, and deadly violence at the hands of ICE and other federal agencies, we are joining together to take a moment to reject the dehumanization of immigrants and spread LOVE to our communities.
During the week of February 9th, leading up to Valentine's Day, grassroots organizations, advocates, civil rights leaders, labor unions, professionals, elected officials, college students, and anyone else are invited to host events, participate in online activations, and write letters to immigrants, with love. Contribute your voice and your platform to standing in solidarity with immigrants, recognizing their humanity, and drawing attention to the ongoing harm of current immigration policies and extreme actions by federal agents.
Here’s what you can participate in the the #ToImmigrantsWithLove campaign.
- Share your message of love on social media using the #ToImmigrantsWithLove.
- Customize your message to share love with people in your community, such as immigrant teachers, street vendors, families in detention, and even your own immigrant family members.
- Organize or participate in a community event or training, like a Court Watch training or Adopt a Day Labor Corner webinar.
- Support local mutual aid efforts and immigrant-serving nonprofits through volunteerism or financial contributions. For opportunities to show love to Minnesota, visit www.standwithminnesota.com.
Invite your friends, colleagues, and neighbors to join the campaign and contribute their voices and platforms to standing in solidarity with immigrants, recognizing their humanity, and drawing attention to the ongoing harm of current immigration policies and extreme actions by federal agents.
