Justice for Lorenzo: Day of Action & Accountability Movement Call

On Tuesday, July 7, Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was shot and killed by an ICE agent in Houston, Texas. Lorenzo was not under investigation. He was not a suspect. He was a dad driving a work van with his crew when he was gunned down. Lorenzo was a worker in America - with a family, with coworkers, with a community - who was killed on his way to a job site by ICE deportation agents who are reckless and out of control.

Join us for the Justice for Lorenzo: Day of Action and Accountability Movement Call on July 15 at 8:00 PM ET, where we will gather in solidarity to hear from Lorenzo’s loved ones, get updates about the case, and learn how you can take action over the coming weeks to demand justice and accountability for Lorenzo and his family.

On the call we will provide tips and tactics to support you in taking actions that include a powerful visual symbol to lift up during the World Cup final (Lorenzo’s son was named Ronaldo after the soccer star) and vigils to be held across the country on or around July 25 in solidarity with community vigils taking place right now in Houston and across Texas.

The violence that took Lorenzo's life cannot be hidden behind secrecy, lies, or impunity. Justice for Lorenzo means justice for everyone living under the threat of unchecked immigration enforcement violence in our country.

Come to this call to learn more about how you can join the movement to honor Lorenzo’s life and demand justice.
