Quinceañeras are about to take on a whole new meaning. Fifteen teenagers, ages 15 and 16, are coming together to protest the Senate Bill 4 (SB4), which is being considered a “ban on Sanctuary cities.” And this isn’t your regular protest as the young women participating will be dressed in bright, puffy quinceañera dresses.
The event, hosted by the Latino non-profit Jolt, will take place on July 19 at the Capitol Steps in Austin, Texas. The protestors will be taking turns to recite their stance against SB4 and they will also perform a choreographed dance together, which is a tradition at the coming-of-age celebration.
