The voice of freedom will never be silent.
Join us as the Filipino commmunity comes together for an all-day outdoor multicultural music festival. An interactive mural will be set up for all to express their thoughts, well wishes, and drawings. A community table will be on hand with information related to the WTC attack, places to volunteer and those organizing around bringing an end to the backlash.
This is also an invitation to those of you involved in activities around the WTC attack, whether a volunteer in the relief effort or organizing around the terrible backlash among the Muslim community, those with a Middle Eastern background, South Asians, and other people of color. We will be having a community table to share information about those organizing campaigns related to the recent events. Please feel free to bring literature from your organizations or campaigns, and information that you think should be shared and disseminated.
Objectives
:
To raise money for the families of policemen, firefighters, rescue workers, and civilian victims of the WTC attacks.
