Fundraiser for Anti-Racists Arrested Fighting the Minutemen

Three were originally charged with "assault with a deadly weapon on a police officer" for allegedly throwing open soda cans. Two still face felonies and are going to trial. Police testimony at their preliminary hearing was filled with absurd accusations and lies. A potential defense witness was threatened with arrest if she testified, as a cop suddenly "remembered" her being at the demonstration also.

Immigrant workers are under severe attack in this country, the cutting edge of a transition to a police state. The Minutemen are gutter racists, but they have high-level government support, addressing a Congressional committee and being feted at Congressional receptions. Corporations make billions from paying immigrants substandard wages, made possible by terrorizing "illegal" workers.
