April, 2006?

A small group of RMOers joined thousands of transit workers in a march across the Brooklyn Bridge.  Highlights included Carrie debuting her clarinet, and one transit guy helping out by walking Becca’s bike for her.

Immigrants March against HR 4337

April 10, 2006 · Posted in History · Comment 

Another huge march for immigrants’ rights. A small but spirited group of RudeMos played improvised tunes to complement the people’s chanting. This included a sweet jam to “Si Se Puede” and lots of requests for a salsa number, of which we have none. Also, Jon Stewart smiled at us on the street, which made one or more of us feel a little tingly.

Also of note: not one but two trumpeters taking on percussion duties.

Fort Green Park, Brooklyn

You always hurt the one you love. So we fought our friends, the HMB, Kenny Wollesen’s band, and new friend What Cheer? Brigade (from Providence) and took over the park. We are tough and badass. We love children.

Across the Brooklyn Bridge

$$$

Description: Say “NO” to H.R. 4437 and “YES” to a comprehensive, realistic, workable immigration reform. Come and support Immigrants’ Rights around the country.

An urgent call on all ethnicities and races! Come and join in solidarity with our immigrants in their struggle to gain dignity to live decently and provide for their families.

The March against H.R. 4437 strongly rejects the negative message sent to the American people suggesting immigrant families are a threat to American society.

This resolution puts at risk anyone who helps any of the 11 million undocumented immigrants in the country, it denies their American children to be American, it is unpatriotic.

This resolution is wrong and it separates communities: it creates animosity among minority groups and mistrust of local law enforcement. Immigrants need a bill that is comprehensive, realistic, and workable, that provides legal channels for workers, and places them on the path to earned citizenship.
