Morning Tuesday: Beverley Braham

morning tuesday: Beverley Braham, who is married to a Canadian citizen and recently gave birth to a child, is facing deportation to Jamaica on September 21, according to NOW Magazine. Around 50 protestors gathered at 7 45 am. Members of Black Lives Matter-Toronto BLM-TO shut down Yonge and Bloor this morning Tuesday, September 19 to protest the imminent deportation of a Toronto mother. At 8 10 am, they blocked all four sides of the intersection, holding signs that read Let Beverley stay, Black families matter and Which side of history are you on Braham and her husband were in attendance. BLM TO first got involved in Braham's case this spring, when she faced deportation in March. She's one month away from the completion of her sponsorship application and they want to separate her from her family, says Syrus Marcus Ware, a spokesperson for BLM-TO. There's no reason why this should be happening. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
