More than 1,000 Yemeni-owned grocery and convenience stores in New York City shut down from noon to 8pm Thursday, February 2 to protest Donald Trump’s travel ban on people from seven mainly Muslim countries.
That afternoon, people converged on Brooklyn’s Borough Hall in a powerful demonstration of their opposition to Trump’s measures.
NOW IS the TIME WHEN WE MUST RISE UP and ACT to STOP the CONSOLIDATION of TRUMP MAGA FASCISM. For the lives of people here and around the world we must refuse unlawful and inhumane orders… we must fill the streets and town squares in non-violent protest—not stopping until we become millions — not relenting until this regime is no longer able to implement its program or maintain its hold on power.
