Written by Black Hot Fire Network on September 20, 2022
Drawing on a traditional form of popular protest across the world, demonstrators will bang pots and pans outside Congress from 11:30am-12:30pm on Thursday September 22 to call for an end to the anti-Black and traumatic ill-treatment of Haitian asylum seekers by US authorities, which amounts to race-based torture under international human rights law. There will be a press conference at 11:30 am.
Amnesty International, Haitian Bridge Alliance, UndocuBlack Network, and Communities United for Status and Protection will lead the action on Capitol Hill, which coincides with the release . . .
