please post upcoming vigils, i missed tonights and feel very touched by this terrible event as many do, thank you
About 50-75 at the Capitol in Madison. Very informal, but nice event with many Sikhs and others attending, exchanging our thoughts and wishes.
I only found out about this at the last minute, and I’d also appreciate more if they come up. We need to show the hate merchants who the silent majority really is.
The one in Milwaukee’s Cathedral Square was very well attended by a diverse community of Milwaukeeans including many Sikh families. Everyone was impressed by the solidarity being shown!
A candle light vigil is being held Monday night at the Sikh Temple (3675 N. Calhoun Rd., Brookfield, WI.) from 7:00pm to 8:00pm.
