Editor’s Note: The following newsletter was originally sent by United We Dream on June 7th, 2025.
Over the weekend, as ICE raids erupted across Los Angeles, thousands of working people in our communities came together to defend our immigrant neighbors, teachers, and classmates who are being torn from their homes and families.
We show up because we care for one another, and we know the unmistakable role that immigrants play in making our communities stronger.
But how can we protect one another when millions upon millions of our taxpayers dollars are being used to silence us – testing the limits of just how far attacks to suppress our rights can go?
What we’re witnessing in Los Angeles and across the country reminds us that our communities have always powered us through difficult moments. Now, with our rights and future at stake, we must come together as one to protect one another.
Join us on Thursday, June 12, at 6:30 pm ET at our “From LA to Boston: Build Community Power through Art” Community Gathering — a space dedicated to understanding this moment for what it is: an attack on community power and resistance.
With you alongside us, we’re ready to fight for a future where our government doesn’t attack our rights and instead invests in helping our communities thrive.
Can we count you in? RSVP to our Community Gathering today to learn how you can unite your friends and family to fight for our communities.
Invite your friends and loved ones to join you at our community gathering:
In power,
Yasmin and the rest of the UWD team
