Ebashi-i, we all know him as the man who can fit into a box. He is a longstanding street performer on the Pearl Street Mall and a dear friend to countless locals. Unfortunately, he now faces deportation, after a decade of devotion to bringing cheer to all who cross his path through his talents and his love. By becoming a fan to this group, you are indicating to the court your support for Ebashi-i to remain in the United States. You have seen his live performance on the Pearl Street Mall and we all value what he adds to the community. His unique and upbeat performance has made us laugh and warmed our hearts for more than just a single occasion. His long standing place is an attraction to our town and he has become an icon. The community would truly be at a loss if he were deported. With enough people to sign this petition, a friend to many will have the freedom to stay where he belongs.
