On Friday January 30th the Newark LGBTQ Community Center will join communities across the country in the ICE Out nationwide shutdown.
We are calling for an end to the violence, fear, and family separation inflicted by ICE agents in our communities. Our communities deserve dignity, safety, and the right to live without fear.
Our liberation is interconnected. When immigrant/migrant communities are targeted, LGBTQ+ communities are impacted too. The Newark LGBTQ Community Center advocates for a world where everyone belongs, everyone is protected, and everyone can live freely.
