Day of Remembrance Vigil for Liberation & Sacred Protection

This vigil will include prayer, song, and testimony as we stand in solidarity with immigrants and asylum seekers targeted by ICE and recommit ourselves to justice, dignity, and care for all.

Day of Remembrance Vigil

When: Wednesday, February 25
Time: 11:00 AM – 12:30 PM
Where: ICE Field Office, 630 Sansome Street, San Francisco, CA

We invite you to join us for a public vigil of prayer, singing, and testimony as we honor the Day of Remembrance and stand in solidarity with immigrants and asylum seekers who are being targeted for violence, brutality, and persecution by ICE today. 

More than 80 years ago, 125,000 people of Japanese ancestry were forcibly incarcerated by the U.S. government. On this Day of Remembrance, we gather to honor their lives and resilience—and to recognize how systems of detention and incarceration continue to harm our communities.

We call for liberation, an end to detention and incarceration practices, and we pray for the sacred protection for all our communities.
