SWU with Fuerza Unida gathered in front of the office of Homeland Security to denounce the ‘campaign of fear’ that is being perpetrated against the residents of this city. It seems in response to mass mobilizations of people across the country to demand human rights, the government intends to scare people away from participating in the May 1st National Day of Action. This weekend the migra raided flea markets and grocery stores on a hunt for undocumented residents. An unknown number of migrants, primarily men, have been deported.
This cowardly tactic demonstrates that the government wants to maintain the ‘status quo’ of an exploited class of workers denied their rights and forced to live in fear.
