on Wednesday, November 5 at 7pm ET/4pm PT
Immigration is the backbone of the American dream -- but there has never
been a time when this country has truly welcomed all immigrants safely.
And right now, the federal government is enacting a campaign of cruelty on
our communities that is ripping families apart and disappearing human
beings off the street, from their jobs, even from their homes.
On this call, National Director of Immigrant Community Strategies for the
ACLU Maribel Hernández Rivera will help allies show up for immigrant
communities as they face potential law enforcement encounters. You’ll
learn bystander and immigrant rights during these interactions, alongside
practical strategies to safely and effectively act as an ally.
Maribel Hernández Rivera is the National Director of Immigrant Community
Strategies at the American Civil Liberties Union and previously served as
District Director for Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Maribel
received her J.D. from New York University School of Law, her Masters in
Public Affairs from Princeton’s School of Public and International
Affairs, and her A.B. from Harvard University. Upon law school graduation,
Maribel served as law clerk to the Honorable Mary M. Schroeder in the U.S.
Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. She is a native Spanish speaker,
and her professional and lived experience has centered around advocating
for immigrants' rights.

Advancing Our Values -- Solidarity in Action Training Series
Solidarity in Action is our speaker series bringing together Indivisibles
from across the country to learn from experts on systemic change and
allyship. Authoritarianism succeeds when it targets vulnerable populations
and everyone turns aside. We will not look away. With this speaker series,
we’re going to learn how to better support impacted communities from
experts in the field.
Here’s a preview of what’s to come:
