The San Diego Rapid Response Network is a broad coalition of immigrant rights, faith, labor, education and service organizations as well as non-traditional organizations, attorneys, leaders and allies throughout the region that have joined forces to develop and operate a regional system that will respond to reports of immigration raids/arrests, abuses and family separations.

You will be trained and, after that, you would be able to volunteering some time supporting the network. It does not matter if you just have a couple of hours per week; they are useful. The network works around an app created by a group of Bay Area DACA students that is very flexible. It allows you to volunteer in the times and days you decide, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The system is already operating in at least 20 cities around the country. You could check the San Diego Rapid Response Network Facebook here.

Marichuy, la voz de los pueblos originarios de México: Nov 15, 2017

Marichuy, la voz de los pueblos originarios de México 

Presentation by Rosa Barajas, co-coordinator of the Caravana contra la Represion en Mexico and author of Marichuy, la voz de los pueblos originarios de México

Room MS 462


Por primera vez en la historia de México una mujer indígena busca participar en las elecciones del 2018 para la presidencia de la república. Por elección de una asamblea de pueblos originarios congregados en el Congreso Nacional Indígena (CNI), María de Jesús Patricio Martínez (Marichuy), nahua del sur de Jalisco, fue nombrada vocera del Concejo Indígena de Gobierno (CIG) para participar en los comicios como candidata independiente. Su participación en el proceso rompe con la posición anti-electoral que desde sus inicios el CNI mantuvo, mostrando la falta de confianza hacia la política mexicana. Miembros del congreso indígena denuncian lo que llaman una guerra de exterminio hacia sus comunidades a favor de megaproyectos y en nombre del progreso. Ven su participación en el proceso electoral como una vía de denuncia y organización para detener esa guerra.
