14,000 March in Atlanta Against New Anti-immigrant Law

Atlanta, Ga.--Yesterday, supporters of immigrant rights and comprehensive immigration reform marched in Atlanta, Georgia to speak out against the new extreme anti-immigrant House Bill 87, a bill which mirrors that of Arizona's racial profiling law, SB1070. Civil rights groups say the bill creates "an unwelcome environment for people of color and those in search of a better life".

It is estimated that about 14,000 people participated in the march and rally that surrounded the blocks around the Georgia State Capitol.

No human is illegal! Georgia, Alabama: states with rich and disgusting history of racism! Thank God they have already lost, they just don't know it yet! Racist rednecks are on the wrong side of both history and demographics!!!
