Join pro-immigrant and community groups, including the A.N.S.W.E.R. Coalition, at a community rally to protest the city of Costa Mesa’s anti-immigrant policies. Costa Mesa is having the police and Orange County sheriffs cooperate with federal immigration authorities to arrest and deport people due to their immigration status. Following the massive pro-immigrant protest in Los Angeles and student walkouts throughout the week, it is more important than ever to come together in unity to stamp out racist government policies that seek to criminalize immigrants.
Supported by March 25 Coalition, Latino Movement USA, Hermandad Mexicana Nacional, Mexican American Political Association, A.N.S.W.E.R. Coalition and many others.
Costa Mesa is a city with an increasing Latino population governed by a mayor who is an “honorary” Minuteman.He is deliberately implementingԚ anti-Latino policies and among other things, brought an author of neo-Nazi literature into the government.
Humberto Caspa, writer for La Opinion and adjunct professor at CSULB, documents this in the following articles.
Why Things are falling apart in Costa Mesa
Considering the number and size of the groups endorsing this demo, I expect it will be large.
