To all people of every faith, philosophy, and creed:
As a symbol of our solidarity with our neighbors and colleagues, we invite you to march with us between several select houses of worship, as together we lead the way toward peace and unity among all people.
The theme of this march is that we reject all hatred and oppression in the name of religion, both at home and abroad;
And in light of the rise in politically motivated hate crimes, and the persistence of genocides, we support the most vulnerable of religious communities against Islamophobia, Anti-Semitism, and all forms of religious or ideological extremism, as we stand in support of every person’s right to freedom of worship or belief, and the right to live peacefully.
March route, approximately 1 mile (subject to change):
Meet at The Islamic Center of Southern California (434 S Vermont Ave, Los Angeles)
Walk to Founders’ Church of Religious Science (3281 West 6th St.)
Next stop Immanuel Presbyterian Church (3300 Wilshire Blvd.)
