IL-</I> One day after the launch of “Be an Equal Rights University Campaign” led
by the University of Chicago and days after undocumented students risked arrest
in Arizona and were put in deportation proceedings, Chicago High School students
walk out of classes in the fight for legalization and against the Arizona racist
law SB1070.<BR> <BR>As part of the National student week of action, Chicago
South Side High School Students demand a stop on the implementation of the
Arizona racist law SB1070 which legalizes racial profiling of Latinos and people
of skin color, demand legalization for undocumented students and their families
and demand president Obama to implement and immediate halt on the deportations
of the three undocumented students that were arrested in Tucson Arizona in
McCain’s office for demanding to be heard by the senator.
<BR> <BR>“Patience is running out in the Latino community, we marched, we
voted and we still get deported, so now we walk out” said Tanya Lozano from the
Youth Equalizers and Center for Inner City Studies.<BR> <BR>“Every day a
family is separated, a student is denied a righteous future and a mother or
father is deported and we cannot live on promises any longer, we need to see
action”, said Darlene Bueno from Benito Juarez.<BR> <BR> “We are
utilizing our first amendment rights under the constitution to assemble and
freedom of speech, the tea party is over, legalization or no re-election, we
will be starting a voters registration and education campaign starting now” said
Iliana Mujica <BR> <BR>“We demand education and Legalization not
deportation and family separation”, said Carmela from Northeastern Illinois
University and Movimiento Cultural Latinoamericano.<BR> <BR><B>WHAT:
