RE: Hamtramck rally this Friday, March 22nd, in remembrance of the fallen in the Christchurch massacre
Below is an announcement from the Coalition to Oppose the Expansion of (the hazardous waste plant misleading called) US Ecology in support of a demonstration called by community activists:
Join us for a rally in Hamtramck to stand in remembrance of our fallen brothers and sisters in New Zealand and also standing against media bias which is fueling Islamophobia
Place: Zussman park, Hamtramck City Hall, Michigan
Friday, March 22, 2019 at 2 PM
Organized by Hamtramck/Detroit Communities
We have been fighting the expansion of US Ecology for 3 1/2 years. A
few months ago the coalition was joined by Muslim activists (mainly
from the Yemeni and Bangladeshi communities) who were also fighting the
expansion of this hazardous waste plant. They had collected thousands
of signatures on a petition they sent to the governor. The joining of
forces has invigorated the struggle and enable us to pressure the
Michigan Department of Environment Quality to hold another public
meeting March 28th. Standing together, against the hatred aimed to
divide us, strengthens our struggle against the pollution of our
communities and our water. And reaffirms the need for human dignity for
all.<>
