Santa Fe March in Support of Immigration Reform Set for Sunday

Editor's Note: There will be events that are part of the National Day of Action on immigration reform in Albuquerque and Las Cruces, in addition to this one in Santa Fe. Visit Swopblogger for more information.

From Somos Un Pueblo Unido:
In addition to the march, we are calling for a “Buy Nothing Day” on Monday, April 10th, in solidarity with groups mobilizing across the country for the National Day of Action. We are asking folks to wear a white ribbon on Monday to visually show their support. See you on Sunday!
