Protest

                         A day without  Immigrants         

          My name is Lindsay and on February 16, 2017, I decided to stay home with my family. It was a day of protest around  the city.  It  was called A Day Without Immigrants. This day was for immigrants in California . The reason they made this day because people in California think that us immigrants don't do a thing . So because of that we immigrants wanted to show that we do something in California. So in California, immigrants decided to protest.


If you don't know what protest means then I will tell. Protest means “to stand up for your beliefs and your kind.” So we immigrants stood together  by not going to go to work, or school. Even people working in restaurants closed their place to protest. They even didn't use their car they walked.
So that showed that a day without immigrants gives less money to the school and less money to businesses in California . I also protest with all the children in my family. We did not go to school that day.


I do have a question for you,”did you protest on February 16, 2017?” If you did what did you do on that day?

Here is the meaning of Protest.
