Walk for Interdependence on Sunday

Fri, 07/12/2019 - 15:30

In solidarity with marches held across the country on Friday to support immigrant families and those seeking asylum at the border, local activists will gather in Sag Harbor on Sunday for the second annual East End Walk for Interdependence.

The walk will set out from Long Wharf at 3 p.m.

" 'Keep families together' is our urgent, continuing theme," organizers wrote on the event's Facebook page, noting that they will draw attention to "the ongoing brutality visited upon immigrant families being rounded up, separated and held in detention centers without recognition of basic human rights," as well as to the "rights of incarcerated mothers separated from their children," and "the harsh reality of missing and murdered indigenous women."

Organizers have encouraged people to walk with signs of support.

The first such march here was held last year on July 4.
