1,000-Plus Voices Call For “Justicia Ahora!” – New Haven
Tagged: bilingual, border, Connecticut, HIV, RaidsPosted on: June 17th, 2007“More than 1,000 New Haveners marched in a spirited and peaceful parade demanding an end to federal raids like the recent sweep in New Haven and “justicia ahora,” justice now for immigrants.
Saturday afternoon’s rousing march through the rain featured a bilingual atmosphere, multi-state contingents, and wide spectrum of participation, ranging from labor unions to peace councils and politicians to a newly sighted group, Queers Without Borders. It all underscored that for organizers and participants, the show they were putting on was not only for the city, but for the country as well.”
