The Immigrant Workers Freedom Ride
Check this out:
Modeled after the Freedom Rides of the Civil Rights Movement, the goal of the Immigrant Workers Freedom Ride is to generate dialogue and awareness around immigrant worker issues. The organizers are emphasizing the fact that workers live and pay taxes, deserve the right to legalize their status, should be better assisted in applying for citizenship and should be able to HAVE A VOICE in this democracy called America that relies so heavily on their labor.
The riders are going to travel across the country and hit 9 cities, final destination Flushing, Queens. They will arrive on October 4th.
My friend Rupa is involved in the organizing, leave a comment or contact me (djatthissitedotcom) if you'd like me to introduce you.
