pro-democracy faith movement

Religious extremism threatens our democracy, our communities, and individual freedoms. We are a counterforce: challenging theocratic authoritarianism by mobilizing people of diverse faiths and beliefs to achieve democracy together.

Faith leaders, clergy, and community members march solemnly together with candles and signs reading, 'Choose Love, Not ICE' and 'GOD'S LOVE MELTS ICE.
