‘Awakening of the Hispanic political giant’ in Arlington, Texas

“”This is an awakening of the Hispanic political giant that we are,” said Arlington City Council member Robert Rivera. “It’s an issue that affects a large population of our community.

The protest at Carl Knox Park – one of many held locally and throughout the country during the past week – served as a prelude to a mass protest planned next Sunday in Dallas.

“We as Hispanics can make a difference,” said Elia Chavez of Arlington. “When we get together, we are powerful.”"
