PREJUDICE IS NOT PATRIOTIC
STAND IN SUPPORT AND SOLIDARITY FOR ALL AMERICANS
MEETING OF CIVIL RIGHTS AND COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS
Tues. Sept. 25 10:00 a.m. at 126 High Street Boston
In the wake of our national tragedy, all of us
continue to mourn the tragic
losses of September 11. As we express our national
pride, all Americans
must know that discrimination and scape-goating are
not patriotic. Our
government and religious leaders have demonstrated
their united condemnation
of acts of prejudice and discrimination. By attending
Tuesday's meeting of
civil rights and community organizations, and signing
on to the joint
statement attached, you can join in a clear message of
support and
solidarity. At the meeting we will also finalize a
resource list for
victims and targets of discrimination, and get an
update from law
enforcement and some of the affected communities.
PLEASE RSVP BY EMAILING YOUR NAME, NAME OF YOUR
ORGANIZATION, PHONE NUMBER
AND EMAIL ADDRESS TO avelm@adl.org
<mailto:avelm@adl.org>
<mailto:avelm@adl.org <mailto:avelm@adl.org> > and
Again, the meeting is at
10:00 a.m. on Tuesday September 25, at 126 High Street
in Boston.
If you have any questions, please feel free to call
the Anti-Defamation
League at (617) 457-8800.
