Youth call for a city wide March  -  In order to bring immigration reform to the top of the agenda, we are calling for a mass mobilization for immigrant rights in Chicago, as part of the fight for immigration reform.     In these times, we must remember our dignity, courage and perseverance. And we must work together for the legalization of undocumented immigrants which our country needs.

Help us spread the word; invite everyone to join us for this important march.

Join us on Wednesday night!
