"National Coming out of the Shadows Day"

Chicago will come out of the shadows for a mass mobilization on March 10th, 2010.
March from Union Park to Federal Plaza
Reunion Time: 12:00 noon Union Park ( W. Lake and N. Ashland)
March Step Off Time: 2:00 p.m.
Arrive at Federal Plaza and Coming Out Event : 4:00 PM 


The Immigrant Youth Justice League (IYJL) is working with community organizations for a mass youth-led immigrant rights mobilization in Chicago, and national coordinated actions by youth and students starting on March 10th, 2010 in support for a path towards legalization.

IYJL members have been “coming out” or openly identifying as undocumented immigrants, and speaking about our stories, as a strategy to get the issue of immigration in people’s minds, and on the national agenda. In collaboration with the national youth-led network United We Dream, students and youth from around the country will be organizing “coming out of the shadows” actions between March 10th and March 21st, starting right here in Chicago.

To endorse this march please contact Jose Herrera at josefro...@aol.com. We are asking those who can to cooperate financialy with a $50 donation. If a check, it can be made out to the "Immigrant Youth Justice League." We need money for permits, stages, bathrooms, and flyers.

We live everyday in fear and we are tired of it. We want to be able to talk about our lives and our stories without fearing persecution or deportation. We are not free to travel, go to school, work, live, but we refuse to be helpless.

In Chicago on March 10th , 2010 youth are calling for a community mobilization from Union Park to Federal Plaza, ending with a mass coming out direct action demonstration by undocumented youth. This “coming out of the shadows” is meant as a call for leadership from Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL), who has been supportive of immigrant youth, but has not taken action to pass immigration reform this year. IYJL has also extended an invitation for a place at the table to the Senator, as well as President Barack Obama and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, so that they can hear the proposals for immigration reform from the people that are affected the most.



Come and join us on our planning meetings on:
Tuesday's Feb 23, March 2, March 9, 2010 @ 6:00 p.m. ( 3 meetings left till the event )
 
Place: Pilsen Chamber of Commerce, 1810 S. Allport, Chicago IL 60608
 
 
Come prepare to share plans, ideas, strategies and resources....!
