Brooklyn Law School students continue to fight for immigrant rights
The administration at Brooklyn Law School (BLS) reacted quickly to President Donald Trump’s “Muslim ban” almost immediately after he announced it and the students continued to carry on that message of support for immigrants when it held a rally and march in Downtown Brooklyn on Thursday night.
The rally started in front of Borough Hall before the crowd of more than 100 students and activists marched to the federal courthouse three blocks away while holding up signs and chanting anti-Trump and pro-democracy slogans.
“I stand before you with pride as I see so many spirited students, professors, staff, community residents and dignitaries who have gathered in support of nothing less than our American values, our American justice system and of course, the Constitution of the United States,” said BLS Dean Nicholas Allard.
