BRADENTON, Fla. (WWSB) – Newly founded organization Onward and Empowered of Florida held a rally Sunday to address immigration issues.
The forum featured speakers including Human rights activist and public educator Reverend Charles McKenzie, Attorney CJ Czaia, and Attorney Victoria Bruno.
“I’m horribly frustrated, angry, wanting to help” Czaia said. “A lot of non-truths floating around and so it’s important to get accurate information from people like the speakers we have here today”, he added.
Czaia told ABC7 that it’s important for people to be involved in community events like this.
“I’m very upset about what is happening regarding social justice and how our system should function. You know after all the us citizen and American and believe we need to get involved to change positive” Czaia added.
Attorney, Victoria Bruno also spoke at the event and says it’s important to get as much information as possible in order to form your own opinion.
“I think just anything political and immigration is obviously very political these days to actually fully understand something before forming an opinion I mean having your opinion is the whole point of being a us citizen you can have that opinion but it’s always best to be educated so you know what you are making that opinion and why that’s your mindset” Bruno said.
