Participants are welcome to gather at Michael's for a bite directly after the vigil. Please send an RSVP to Linda.Unterman@gmail.com.

Participants are asked to bring non-partisan signs showing support for Muslim neighbors and immigration and opposition to deportation and the Muslim travel ban. Candles & some signs will be provided.

"Stand Up for Social Justice" is a Bloomington-Normal non-partisan coalition. See the group's page on Facebook.

At these second Tuesday monthly vigils, the group seeks to encourage our Bloomington-Normal community to show support to protect civil rights and human rights when at risk, promote social justice, and to safeguard our environment.
