Report from Protest at Federal Building Against Rags USA Raid
by Cesar/CRECEN repost Thursday, Jun. 26, 2008 at 4:02 PM

MORE than 80 community members and organizations congregated in front of the Federal Building today to denounce the Raid that occurred yesterday at a clothing factory.? Today was a success because with this action we are able to show Houston and ICE that we will not stay quiet in the mist of all of these raids which are splitting up families and leaving children without mothers.? There will be many more actions like this and as always I thank all of you who came out today in the fight for social justice. Whether there are 10 or 100 people present we must never stay quiet and we must always say that there are those Houstonians like us that will continue to fight for social justice.? As long as their is life their is hope!

Special thanks to CRECEN, America Para Todos, SEIU, HIWJ, FIEL ACORN, and other organizations and community members that came out today to support this call for justice and to end the RAIDS!? TOGETHER we can accomplish anything and together we will put Houston on the right path towards social Justice.?
