Update on Border Angels Migrant March

by Enrique Morones (with background by Leslie) Monday, Feb. 13, 2006 at 11:39 AM

Progress report from the March and Caravan by Migrants as they head to a showdown with Lou Dobbs and then to DC.

The March and Caravan for Migrants is a cross-country effort to stop the border killings and say "No" to oppressive anti-immigration legislation. They rallied in Los Angeles on February 3.  A report from march organizer Enrique Morones follows.
MIGRANT MARCH... DATELINE SUNDAY FEBRUARY 12...
 
LOUISIANA (Helping the local economy) as we stayed in a motel (tired)....Great weekend as we marched in downtown San Antonio, we held a powerful rally in front of the Alamo, we were joined by more members on the March to DC as Benigno Pena and company brought more supporters for caravan!!! ...then headed to Victoria, Texas and held a very moving ceremony with 19 crosses (18 for the men and one for 5 year old Marco Antonio as they suffocated in the back of a semi there in 2003)
 
After sleeping "la casa de tamaulipas" we were welcomed by the Bishop of Houston on Saturday morning as well as the good folk at "Crece" where they delivered hand fulls of letters denouncing HR4437 and they held a rally in support of our Migrant March from SD to DC and we traveled on to Dallas and held another rally in front of the site where a real President, John Kennedy, was assassinated may he rest in peace...we were joined by Lulac President Hector Flores, State Representative Roberto Alonzo, former President Fox cabinet member Juan Hernandez and many more as we rallied for NO MORE DEATHS on the border, NO ON HR4437 and yes to Human Rights!!! Thanks Nancy Guerrero for all your help!!!
 
This morning we'll cross Mississippi and Alabama ( and pay our respect to the civil rights workers slain in Jackson as well as place a cross in Alabama, the birthplace of the great late Mrs. Martin Luther King)
 
Tomorrow it's "Buena's Tardes" Lou Dobbs @ CNN headquarters....then on to DC for legislative visits...SI SE PUEDE
 
PLEASE ASK OUR FRIENDS TO JOIN US THE 18TH IN DC FOR RALLY @ WEST WING 3:00PM !!!
 
Gracias a Gus, Lidia @ Southwest, Gloria, Marta, Dolores, Andres, Marta, Gustavo, Max, Pablo, Rodulfo... y todos & thanks for support
 
Peace
