Los Angles, CA - More than 10,000 immigrant workers and their supporters took to the streets here, May 1, to demand legalization, an end to raids and deportations, justice for the undocumented and an end to the war in Iraq. Three marches converged on downtown Los Angeles for the massive rally.

“We demand full legalization, full equality and say no to the raids and deportations,” said Carlos Montes, of Latinos Against the War. Montes, who helped organize the protest, added, “We want an end to discrimination of all kinds against the undocumented, real equality for Latinos and self-determination for the Chicano nation.”
