The Official Animal Rights March is an annual march founded by the U.K. animal rights organisation Surge. The march began in London in 2016 with 2,500 vegans; in 2017, the march doubled to 5,000 vegans marching for animal liberation through London.

ICE [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] is not just tearing apart families of undocumented people at the border. Here in Ohio, that agency is actively working to target, harass, and criminalize immigrants, directly furthering the Trump regime’s cruel white nationalist agenda.
On Monday, July 9, at 9am, we will rally to #aboliceICE outside the Ohio Statehouse.
Bring signs, bring friends, bring family.

Separating families is inhumane and immoral; we cannot be silent and complicit. Our government has instituted a policy of separating children from their parents at our borders. This is inhumane and immoral and calls for action now!
