During the Bracero Program in the mid-20th century, a collusion of government & business interests hired thousands of Mexican migrant workers under non-negotiable contracts in terrible conditions, and then defrauded them of millions of dollars in

ARNOLDO GARCIA from the National Network for
Immigrant Refugee Rights will speak to currently
proposed legislation and anti-immigrant legislations
like R4437 and the Temporary Worker Program
proposed by the Bush Administration.

MACRINA CARDENAS will speak of the 10,000
ex-Bracero workers currently organized in the National Alliance of Ex Braceros and discuss strategies on how we can work togetherto demand JUSTICE!
