The MB News covered a candlelight vigil held at the Manhattan Beach pier in support of immigrant rights and democracy, where approximately 200 community members gathered peacefully. The article prominently featured Robert Simon, a local attorney and founder of the Justice Team who represents individuals and families affected by immigration raids. Simon encouraged Manhattan Beach residents to leverage their community influence, stating “we have a lot of superpowers” and urging attendees to “record everything” and share details on social media to advocate for immigrant rights. The event, organized by “South Bay Takes a Stand,” marked the second community gathering at the pier focused on immigration enforcement concerns.
