Convergence to Stop the Hate /// Mobilize in AZ on May 29th


There will be a caravan of San Diego people leaving from Chicano Park on Friday, May 28 at 5pm. If you would like to join us, please fill out the Information Form (http://bit.ly/aeN8Ak) and email it to the following address: brujita8106 at yahoo.com. This form allows organizers to match up people with vehicles and to arrange for housing. If you are under 18, please fill out the Parent Permission Form (http://bit.ly/c7P6c1) and email it to the same address. If you don't turn in the info form by May 25, you can still show up on Friday to Chicano Park but we cannot guarantee spaces in cars and you will have to figure out your own sleeping arrangements in Arizona.


The San Diego contingent will have its own security and will be marching behind the May 1st Coalition banner (the people organizing the Caravan). The Coalition is asking that everyone marching with us wear a red shirt during the march so that we will have an idea of who is with the San Diego contingent. The next May 1st Coalition meeting is this coming Tuesday at City College in Room B103 (building in front of McD's) from 6-8 pm.
