Description

Last week, almost 10,000 immigrants marched for their rights in Prince William County, VA. They acted to overturn a resolution by the county board of supervisors that would deny public services to undocumented immigrants, legalize racial profiling and require local officers to enforce federal immigration law. Come to hear their stories and to talk about how we can organize our own immigrant solidarity community here locally. A traditional Latin-American meal will be offered free of charge after the discussion.
