SAN DIEGO (Reuters) – Kneeling in front of riot police, 32 religious leaders and activists were arrested at the U. S. border fence in San Diego on Monday during a protest in support of the Central American migrant caravan.
More than 400 demonstrators, many leaders of churches, mosques, synagogues and indigenous communities, called for an end to detention and deportation of migrants and for the United States to welcome the caravan that arrived in Tijuana, Mexico in November.
Singing and praying, religious leaders moved forward in lines of four to six, some wearing t-shirts reading “Love Knows No Borders.
