"Gather  with our community for a peaceful candlelight vigil to honor
the  upstanders who were attacked and murdered on a MAX train Friday
for  trying to intervene as a man yelled racial slurs at two young
women.
  We ask that our community come together in love and solidarity in
the  face of this horror to honor the memory of the victims and in
support of  those in our city and nation who feel terrorized and
targeted.
 Please help us spread the word and we're asking that attendees bring
their own candle to the event.
 Note: Our use of "standing" is meant to be about solidarity. People
of all abilities are welcome and celebrated at this event.
  We are organizing as fast as we can with Unite Oregon to create a 
robust response with the Muslim community. Stay tuned for a rally in
the  coming week."
