Bingo in Support for Resistencia (REA NJ)'s Fight for Rights

Resistencia en Acción New Jersey (REA NJ), formerly Unidad Latina in Acción NJ, is a grassroots, volunteer-led organization that was founded in 2009. At our first International Workers’ Rights Day protest in the city of Hightstown, Mercer County in the same year, our organization was established.

Our mission is to advance and protect the rights of immigrants and working-class communities in New Jersey. Our work has become more urgent because migrants are being criminalized with the collaboration between local police and immigration.

New Jersey, also known as the Garden State, has the highest proportion of undocumented workers in the nation at 22% and arguably the most diverse immigrant and undocumented population. NJ would lose about $79.3 billion annually and its gross domestic product would decrease about 8.9% if undocumented immigrants were deported.

With the help of PLASA (Princeton Latin American Student Association), this "Bingo Comunitario" Night is being held on Friday, February 28th in the Carl A. Fields Center to support Resistencia's initiatives, and collect winter clothing for day laborers.

Thank you for supporting Resistencia en Acción NJ! We continue in the fight for our right to organize, for our human rights and against oppressive systems.
