Jesus and I would like for everyone to please support, in what ever way you are able, the upcoming protest against injustice towards immigrants. Of course you have heard the "we are all immigrants" talk, and I am sure you have also heard the legal vs. illegal debates. For us, this is more than a matter to be debated. Many of our friends had to cross the river at great peril because they could not support themselves or their families. I am sure that living in South Park, everyone here knows a Mexican who works very hard at a low-paying job, yet never complains.
So we ask, if you hear any accusations that the upcoming march is "un-American", please let the speaker know that nothing could be more American than to stand up against the injustice that keeps families apart, laborers working in hazardous conditions for minimum pay while corporate America gets rich, and being treated as a criminal just because you want to work.
We are not posting this in order to generate a debate. We are just asking for your support, whether you walk out and march on May 1, take a moment of silence, say a prayer, or speak up against the injustice.
