FUJ Solidarity Tour: Seattle Mystica, Rally and March

October 9, 2022 @ 5:00 pm - 9:00 pm PDT

Familias Unidas por la Justicia Farmworker Solidarity Tour
Creando el Mundo Que Queremos

Join Washington state’s Indigenous farmworker union Familias Unidas por la Justicia (Families United for Justice) as they embark on a Washington State tour to raise awareness about the problems with the Farm Workforce Modernization Act, a bill which would extend the H2A program and establish e-verify, an electronic data program that will contribute to increased tracking of migrant farmworkers in the US.

On SUNDAY October 9, join us for a rally at Danny Woo Garden! We will depart towards Hing Hay Park for a program featuring community organizations, and then have a dinner reception at the WSLC offices.

  • 5pm Mystica and rally at Danny Woo Garden, and march towards Hing Hay Park in Seattle’s Chinatown International District
  • 6pm Speakers at Hing Hay Park, including FUJ and other community groups, who will present a joint declaration and speak on intersecting issues.
  • 7:30pm Dinner reception at Washington State Labor Council
