I am sure by now you have heard the news about Arizona’s new immigration law. It is an outrage. It is impossible to imagine such a law will be passed in these United States at the dawn of the 21st century. It is impossible to imagine!

Some of you might think this issue is far from here and it does not apply. Think again! Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.

You might think this issue only affects our Latino brothers and sisters. Think again! Our story is singular — an immigrant story — and our destiny is shared!

Friends, this is your time to make your mark like the courageous generation before us. Do not shrink before the eyes of history. Be courageous. Come out!

March!
Yell!
Let them hear you!
Let them know you do not want this!

This is the same week Dorothy Height is laid to rest. It is up to this us to pick up the baton and charge ahead!

I AM SURE you know someone who is an undocumented immigrant. March on their behalf! Raise your voice on their behalf!

If you are undocumented, come out and March! Let’s lock our arms and sing we shall overcome.

There will be tens of thousands of people of all race marching in over 70 cities across the country on Saturday, May 1st, 2010. I AM CALLING ON ALL OF YOU to come out and support the cause in Washington, DC or in your respective cities.
