The Immigrant Day Rally will be May 1, 4-6pm, at Worcester City Hall.
The site was chosen because of the statue of George Frisbie Hoar, a Republican Senator and Worcester resident who fought for the rights of African-Americans, Indians, and women, and opposed American imperialism.
From tonight’s planning meeting, it sounds like the immigrant community is divided about plans for a strike/boycott.
Much more info will be forthcoming at Indymedia.
Also at Pie and Coffee: Oklahoma City Catholic Worker statement on proposed immigration laws.
