SUMMARY:Unity Rally organized by Multifaith Voices for Peace and Justice
DESCRIPTION:Unity Rally organized by Multifaith Voices for Peace and Justic
 e  Join religious and community organizations as we stand up for justice a
 nd friendship in a UNITY RALLY.  ACT for America\, a grassroots anti-Musl
 im organization that has been listed as a hate group by the Southern Pover
 ty Law Center\, is coordinating dozens of anti-Muslim protests around the 
 country this Saturday\, including one in Santa Clara\, CA.  Our UNITY RAL
 LY will lift up a positive message message of inclusivity and diversity\, 
 standing in solidarity with our Muslim sisters and brothers\, and speaking
  out for the core tenets in all faith traditions of truth\, respect and lo
 ve of neighbor near and far.\n\nWe will gather from a variety of spiritual
  paths and walks of life\, from communities around the bay area\, to celeb
 rate the friendship and respect that we hold dear. While hate must never s
 tand unchallenged\, the intent of the UNITY RALLY is not confrontational\,
  but to affirm the unity in the midst of diversity which is the strength o
 f our communities.\n\nClick here to download a flyer and distribute widely

  Shariah\," ACT targets Muslim communities\, works actively to ban humane 
 refugee resettlement programs from war-torn countries such as Syria\, and 
 raises the issue of Islamic law as a fear-mongering tactic. Scheduling the
  rallies during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan\, and so shortly after th
 e horrific tragedy in Portland is particularly offensive.  Note that the 
 anti-Muslim rally is schedule to be at the corner of Stevens Creek Blvd an
 d Winchester Ave. Please avoid confrontation and be sure to join the UNITY
  Rally atStevens Creek Blvd. and Santana Row\, about 1/2 block away.
