Protest Trump's Immigration Ban In Tribeca Wednesday

TRIBECA, NY — Many New Yorkers are outraged by President Donald Trump's recent Executive Order signed Friday evening, which bans refugees from seven majority Muslim countries from traveling to the U.S. This has led to widespread protests in NYC and across the country, and protestors aren't slowing down this week.

Want to protest the ban from your own neighborhood?

Local New Yorkers along with Syria Solidarity New York City and CISPOS-NYC: Committee In Solidarity with the People of Syria are holding a protest, No Ban No Wall! March for Muslims and Allies!, at Foley Square Wednesday.

From 5-8 p.m., protesters will march from Foley Square to the ICE Office to protest Trump's ban on refugees, immigrants and Muslims. The Facebook page calls for New Yorkers to be "unapologetically loud and powerful," to bring signs and to be ready to march.

The protest has received tremendous support on it's Facebook page, where over 3.2 thousand people are marked as "attending" and 12 thousand are marked as "interested." The organizers moved the date, which was originally Feb. 8, because they had to get a permit due to the mass amount of people attending.

Foley Square is located at 111 Worth St and ICE Office at 26 Federal Plaza.
