Hi friend, how did you celebrate Immigrant Day of Resilience on April 15?
On Immigrant Day of Resilience, we embrace the care and abundance that enriches our community’s lives. As we recall the ancestors and elders who planted the seeds in our fight for liberation, we envision the just, multi-racial society we’re building together.
We kicked off our Immigrant Day of Resilience celebration by spreading care, kinship, and ancestral joy online and straight to your mailbox! We partnered with young BIPOC artists who illustrated three postcards that honor our ancestors who fought for racial justice and democracy.

Friend, we are our ancestors: we are their resilience, their hope, their joy. We can fight for the future we want, just like they did.🧡 In District of Columbia, we’ve confronted white nationalists who have tried to fracture, shame, and civically disengage our communities. Our resilience has shined through at every step of the way — from protecting one another to activating our voices to fight for our community.
Immigrant youth know what we’re capable of when we organize — that’s why UWD members from District of Columbia are hosting an Instagram Live to celebrate our community’s resilience! You’re invited to join us on Thursday, April 25, at 7 pm CT/ 8 pm ET to learn how we can continue building resilience at home and in our communities. Let us know you’re coming, and receive a reminder when we go LIVE. Just text “RSVP NOW” to 787-57, or click this link if you’re on your phone today!
See you there,
Ayling and the rest of the UWD team
