(KNOX) – Citing Immigrations and Customs Enforcement as a threat, Global Friends Coalition has chosen not to feature refugee students at a special day this weekend.
The Downtown Farmers Market is set to feature World Refugee Day Saturday, June 13th.
Global Friends will feature art an six-word essays from refugees, but an annual performance by refugees will not take place.
Cynthia Shabb, Global Friends Executive Director, says gathering refugees in one place may invite them to be targeted by ICE. She spoke of citizens being frustrated that the event has to be approached in this way with the climate toward immigration in the nation.
