STUDENT RALLY FOR IMMIGRANT RIGHTS

STUDENT RALLY FOR IMMIGRANT RIGHTS

April 10, 2006 will be a national walk out, boycott, and protest day on behalf of immigrant rights.
Cities all across the nation are planning different events. We felt that Austin should not be an exception. So, a student walkout and rally is being planned for April 10, 2006 from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm at the MLK statue. This event is being sponsored by the University Leadership Initiative and LULAC, and Kappa Delta Chi.

If you want to be part of the history that advocacy groups across the country are now making, please contact me. If you want more details on the events that have been happening, I would be happy to provide you with them. We would love as many student organizations as possible to co-sponsor with us; we are not asking for any money, just the support of your organization.

Below are some links of the marches across the country. They are once again, historic. The country has NEVER seen Latinos mobilize such as now.
