Toronto

J4MW's annual vigil in recognition of International Migrant Workers Day

Date and time

2013.12.18, all-day

Details

On December 18, 2013 Justicia 4 Migrant Workers (J4MW) invites you to our annual vigil in recognition of International Migrant Workers Day. On this day, we will pause, joining migrant workers and allies around the world in reflection.

This short vigil will bring some of the experiences and actions that were part of our work this past year, into focus.

In 2013, we saw horrific injustices: debilitating accidents, sexual violence, and racial profiling perpetrated against migrant workers – all of which we would like to commemorate, because they have become catalysts for action, and have deepened our organizing efforts.

In this spirit, please join us.
