Voces de la Frontera
Scott Walker just signed an anti-immigrant bill. In the national political debate we are seeing unprecedented attacks on workers, immigrants, Muslims, people of color, the LGBT community, and women.
When our community is under attack, what do we do?
May 1st is a national day of action to stand united against hate and racism. Click here to learn about the dozens of cities taking part!
In Milwaukee we’ll start with a community fair at 12pm in front of our offices at 1027 S. 5th St., and then we’ll march at 2:00pm to the Milwaukee County Courthouse downtown.
We are excited to announce that speakers will include Russ Feingold, SEIU President Mary Kay Henry, Milwaukee Alderman José Pérez, and a Voces de la Frontera family that would benefit from DAPA.
At the street fair we’ll have great food and music and community groups will be offering resources, including the 16th Street Community Health Centers, who will be offering free blood pressure and HIV testing. We will also have information about voter registration, English classes, and citizenship.
Sunday we march to demand the US Supreme Court uphold DAPA and DACA+ (an expansion of deportation protections to parents and Dreamers), to urge the City of Milwaukee to create local identification cards, and to begin mobilizing the vote against hatred and bigotry.
Where will you be on May Day? March with us!
