Very touching pictures of the Immigration rallies
I blogged about the relevance of the immigration rallies back in April and May. I think it is great that immigrants regardless of origin or what prompted their situation become active participants in the debate on them.
I just ran across a picture in flickr that touched me very deeply. It is from the May day protest in Chicago. Imagine this: the Federal Plaza in Chicago, early in the morning, the Plaza is basically empty. Half a million people will fill the plaza in a few hours. But now, a lady and her two girls are there, standing in the middle of the vastness of the Plaza, waiting for their people to show up.
