Full report from the newswire by Concerned: As of yet, La Sierra / Tyler districts of Riverside are no where near as bad as places like Eastside--where, you absolutely will get jumped for being the wrong color [between brown / black] for even just walking on the wrong side of the street b/c the turfs are so defined. But, if community members, parents, and students do not take direct action soon, we may very well be on our way to such a demise in other parts of Riverside. Race riots have been spreading in this part of town--from the big Castle Park incident on Valentines Day, to the La Sierra High shut downs the following week, and now this incident at Norte Vista which involved HUNDREDS . . .
Continued Sunday, April 10th, East Los Angeles, California, under the spirit of General Emiliano Zapata, about three hundred people marched in the streets of East Los Angeles and then rally at Mexico Park where father of deceased Marine Lance Cpl Jesus Suarez,
Fernando Suarez del Solar, gave a speech against the war in Iraq and
the militarization of our schools.
