From Arizona to Massachusetts: Our Struggle for Justice

If you've been appalled and saddened by some of the racist and xenophobic rhetoric that's taken over the national immigration debate in recent years...

If you saw what happened in Arizona last year, and wondered 'How can we effectively combat such awful policies? How can we stand up for our vision of an inclusive community? Can this happen here?' ...

If you are concerned about the fact that, working in concert with the federal government, the Boston police department is currently participating in a deeply troubling program (the so-called "Secure Communities Act") which targets immigrants...

then please join us Thursday night for a forum  to discuss  what is happening in Arizona and right here in our own community when it comes to immigration policy.

Greater Boston community leaders, JP Progressives and ¿Oiste? are hosting Carlos Garcia, community organizer from Phoenix Arizona, who for the last four years has worked towards ending and educating about the constant human rights abuses of Sheriff Joe Arpaio, the 287(g) Agreements and Arizona's series of anti-migrant laws. 

Carlos, working with the PUENTE movement and the National Day Labor Organizing Network has focused on using the example of Maricopa County to inform the country of the atrocities in ICE and Local Police collaboration.
