[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] Over 1,000 migrants gathered outside NYC City Hall on Tuesday ahead of a City Council oversight hearing focused on the experience of black arrivals.
The majority of attendees were from Haiti and Guinea, West Africa, and seeking more aid, better shelters and work permits, according to reports.
Only 250 people were allowed inside the 10am hearing, but hundreds more flocked to the park across the street.
Videos circulating on social media show the crowd chanting and cheering.
Some people were allegedly encouraged to attend under the false pretense they would receive green cards and work visas, and were led to City Hall by an activist group, a source told the New York Post. |
