[migrawatch-public] Dinner For The Border...11/16 (After Peace and Unity March)

You are invited to a Community Dinner

Sunday, November 16, 2008

Where we'll share stories and learn about the people and the lives
affected by the militarization of the U.S./Mexico Border

(I will share photos and stories about my work with a humanitarian aid
organization on the border and undocumented friends in the Watsonville
community will share their experiences of crossing the border and of
living the life of an "illegal" in the United States)
