      Disappeared In America Movement Call
We are living through a defining moment for our country.
Across the nation, immigrant families are being targeted, detained, and disappeared — and these attacks are being weaponized as part of a broader authoritarian campaign to divide communities, silence dissent, and erode our most basic freedoms.
The Disappeared in America Weekend of Action — happening November 1 – 2 — is our collective response. Join this national call to learn how you can host or participate in an event, connect with others across the country, and help build a movement rooted in solidarity, compassion, and the defense of fundamental freedoms.
