On the day of the renewal of the license that, youth members of New Sanctuary Movement and their parents held an action in front of City Hall to tell Mayor Nutter to immediately end all collaboration between the police and deportation agents. All the participating youth have immigrant parents, and they shared their stories while “handcuffed” together with paper handcuffs.
We then went into City Hall to deliver our message to Mayor Nutter, but Nutter’s security guard locked the children out of the hall despite the fact that it’s public space. It was a powerful action – the wisdom and bravery of these youth inspires all of us!
