DESCRIPTION:Pierre Damas Bel was 20 years old. He graduated this spring as an honors 
 student, a JROTC member, and a varsity soccer player. On August 24 he 
 started his freshman year at a university. He wanted to study neuroscience 
 and go on to medical school.\n\nHe died on Monday.\n\nIn June, the Supreme 
 Court allowed the administration to strip Temporary Protected Status from 
 Haitian immigrants, and Pierre was one of the hundreds of thousands who 
 lost that protection. In July, immigration authorities summoned him and put 
 a GPS monitor on his ankle. He wrote online about the shame and humiliation 
 he carried after that. His father says he went back to ICE twice and asked, 
 simply, to have it taken off so he could play soccer again.\n\nHis family 
 and Haitian leaders in Springfield believe that weight is what took 
 him.\n\nPlease join us for a peaceful vigil as we mourn Pierre and stand 
 with every family, especially the Haitian community, which is living in 
 fear and uncertainty.\n\nPlease come. Bring a candle if you have 
 one.\n\nAll of our events are held in deep commitment to nonviolent action. 
 We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential 
 confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully 
 at these events.\n
