What: Protest/Photo op at the U.S./Mexico border
When: Saturday December 8 1:00 pm
Where: San Ysidro trolley stop 723 E San Ysidro Blvd, San Ysidro, CA
A 100 foot bilingual banner that reads: Trump/Pence Regime Must Go! / Trump y Pence Tiene Que Lagarse will be unfurled by Refuse Fascism at the U.S./Mexico border, 1:00 pm Saturday December 8.
A regime that fires tear-gas on asylum-seekers and holds 14,000 children in concentration camps is a fascist regime and it must be driven from power. The So Cal chapter of Refuse Fascism is traveling to the U.S./Mexico border, the epicenter of the Trump/Pence fascist regime’s white supremacist assault on immigrants and migrants, which is a linchpin and battering ram of their larger fascist remaking of America, to conduct this intervention.
Michelle Xai of Refuse Fascism So-Cal said: “The same regime that fired tear gas on children in Mexico and puts children in concentration camps here just gave their backing to the brutal murder and dismemberment of Saudi dissident journalist Jamal Khashoggi and dismissed their own government’s latest report on the escalating global emergency of climate change. This regime is a danger to all of humanity which is why we are saying, In the Name of Humanity, the Trump/Pence Regime Must Go!”
When the banner is unfurled at the U.S/Mexico border, media is invited to take pictures and video and interview RefuseFascism.org spokespeople. Refuse Fascism will be live-streaming to people throughout the U.S. and internationally. This is a lawful act of political resistance to the Trump/Pence regime’s attacks on immigrants and their militarization of the U.S/Mexico border. We are organizing a movement to drive out the Trump/Pence regime and this planned afternoon protest in San Ysidro is part of this movement.
Refuse Fascism Southern California chapter was at the border on Sunday November 25 when U.S. authorities unleashed chemical weapons on women, men and children in Mexico. This live-stream gives insight into both the militarization of the border and the outrage of everyday people who demand: The Trump/Pence Regime Must Go!
