Lights for Liberty

July 12, 2019
Warren Park

Nationwide on July 12, Lights for Liberty shined a light on the horrific abuses of the Trump administration* in human detention camps at the southern border and across the country. In a vigil sponsored by TDWJC, more than 120 people came together in solidarity in Burleson to protest the atrocities being inflicted upon refugees entering the United States. We believe that all human beings have the right to life, liberty, and dignity.
