During the August 24th, 2002 march commemorating the Chicano Moratorium of 1970, some 300 Chicano/Mexicanos took to the streets to call for Health
Care, Schools, Jobs, and an end to interventionist wars and Police Brutality. I participated in the march and gave away mulitiple copies of my Poster: "Ningun Ser Humano es Ilegal" (No Human Being is Illegal). In this photograph a young Chicana proudly carries the image down Figueroa Blvd during the march.
