CBS News, ABC 11, and Fox News covered a recent Workers Circle-organized Freedom Vigil in front of the North Carolina General Assembly in Raleigh, NC.

“We are gathered here today to send a clear message to the Trump administration and state legislators: North Carolina opposes mass detention. We will not stand for any ICE detention facilities in our state. We have a moral responsibility to resist this, and we will speak out for those unjustly trapped, raped inside these detention centers."

– Jessica Burroughs, Freedom Vigils national organizer at the Workers Circle

About The Workers Circle

The Workers Circle is a national, secular Jewish social justice organization founded by Eastern European immigrants who fled pogroms and persecutions to seek democratic freedoms and build “a better and more beautiful world for all” at the turn of the 20th century. That history drives our work for human equality and robust democracy today. Our multigenerational activist community of 250,000+ people powers our strategic, non-partisan campaigns to empower voters, strengthen Constitutional rights, and build a durable, grassroots infrastructure to demand the multiracial democracy we need. Core campaigns of the Workers Circle include freedom vigils, talk to your sheriff, democracy circles, and voter empowerment.
