The Georgia January 20th Coalition Launches Action to Demand that Atlanta Declare Itself a Sanctuary City<\/p>\n

Press conference will be at noon on January 20th in front of the Atlanta City Hall,<\/p>\n

68 Mitchell St SW<\/p>\n

Atlanta, Georgia \u2013 On January 20th, the Georgia January 20th coalition will engage in the People\u2019s Inauguration, demanding that the City of Atlanta declare itself a Sanctuary City by addressing a list of demands to protect the human rights of our communities. The coalition will gather at 11:00 am for a march starting from the Troy Davis Park.<\/p>\n

The Georgia J20 Coalition is a solidarity-building partnership of local community grassroots organizations and networks, faith-based organizations, and labor unions. The Georgia J20 is led by impacted communities, who know that the growing climate of hatred, bigotry, anti-Black racism, Islamophobia, and xenophobia has poisoned our political process and damaged our society\u2019s moral compass. As our nation continues to move toward a more right-wing, corporatist, and exclusive form of leadership, we seek to lift up the concerns of our communities and our neighbors. We affirm the resilience and self-determination of our people who are the most directly impacted by forces of oppression. We will continue to center our voices and amplify our initiatives. We will organize, strategize, and build unity in our defense a<\/a>nd will continue to follow the guidance and leadership of our communities. We seek to create a sanctuary space to support and defend our communities\u2019 human rights from a system rooted in income inequality, white supremacy, racism, and misogyny. We realize that in unity and solidarity there is strength.<\/p>\n

The coalition will present its demands at a press conference to be held at noon in front of the City Hall, 68 Mitchell St SW.<\/p>\n
