San Jose March for Rudy Cardenas
2/26/2005: A small march wound its way through the San Jose neighborhood where a high-speed chase one year ago ended in the death of Rudy Cardenas, at the hands of a State Narcotics Agent. Many in the hood talked with the marchers about Rudy and how to get freedom from police violence. Some joined the march.
