racism immigration
Speakers: Other speaker TBA The struggle for a comprehensive and fair immigration reform has been waged for years. The Democratic Party and Obama have promised a reform that is fair to all immigrant workers. What is the truth? How do we defend against racist attacks on the 14th Amendment to the Constitution? Have workplace raids ceased? Have racist profiling laws been stopped? Local law enforcement cooperate with Federal authorities and racist laws. What can activists do to win justice?
Prior to the underreported anti-immigration "Tea Party" rallies of Nov. 14, a moderator for the neo-Nazi forum Stormfront posted what he said was an open letter to Stormfront posters, including David Duke from William Gheen, the President of Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC). In it, he told them that their presence in those rallies is not welcome, to underscore a fact. "Our website says clearly that these events on Nov. 14 are for those who 'share our non-violent and non-racist multi-ethnic and bipartisan support for secure borders and immigration enforcement,'" Gheen reportedly wrote. "THAT CLEARLY EXCLUDES YOU, Mr. Duke, and you as well, Stormfront."
