Gracias Companera Marianna ~ I requested to Join Raza Educators,
though I  usually do not Join a bunch of groups these days because
I would not be an active participant and do not want to spend all my
time in the Emailing Mode when so much need to be done out in the calles.

I have my hands full and my fingers busy a lot anyways, but this kind
of straight up fascist behavior by DHS is an example of the raging insanity
in these times. Presidente Obama has failed miserably in this area for all
his excellence. The Bush Regime may be gone but the new regime also
needs to be educated. The honeymoon is over!

For starters we need to have at least a limited amnesty and definately
a freeze on fascist ICE military maneuvers.

Education for Liberation!

Human Rights observation and monitoring on Thursday, June11th will begin at 6:30 AM at the 12th and Imperial Trolley Station.

 

Teachers and students expected to attend the Metropolitan Transit System Board Meeting following the Human Rights Observation session at 9 AM at the James R. Mills Building, Board Meeting Room-10th Floor 1255 Imperial Ave, San Diego CA, 92101..

 

San Diego-Two weeks after three local high school students were detained, handcuffed and deported to Tijuana on a May 20thfollowing a raid launched by Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officials in the Old Town Trolley Station. Local teachers and students will begin to monitor the trolley system in order to ensure that the rights of students are protected.

 

Nearly a month after a joint operation launched by the US Border Patrol, the Transportation Security Administration and the Metropolitan Transit Police, teachers and students are still outraged that local elected officials have not publicly condemned immigration checks aboard the trolley.

 

"Immigration checks on board the trolley severely undermine the trust that we deposit on public transportation and are an affront on the rights of our community," said Aremi Lopez a local middle school teacher and member of the Association of Raza Educators.

 

The DHS raid prompted at least one hundred students and teachers to gather in front of the MTS offices to rally in order to demand an immediate halt to the raids.

 

"The students were deported to Tijuana within 6 hours of detainment - a place where they know no one, have no money and no resources." stated Dawn Miller, a local teacher.

 

Now teachers say that they will continue to ask the Metropolitan Transit Board to stop collaborating with Border Patrol and DHS officials during immigration checks aboard the trolley.

 

"We expect  public transportation to be safe for our students, without the fear that they will be intimidated by Border Patrol, MTS must stop taking part in these egregious actions," concluded Miller.

¡EDUCACIÓN SÍ! ¡DEPORTACIÓN NO!

¡ALTO A LAS REDADAS EN EL TROLLEY!

URGENTE

¡EDUCACION SI! ¡DEPORTACION NO!

 

 

Mitin de protesta Jueves 11 de junio 2009 de las 6:30 a 7:00 a.m. en la estación de trolley 12 y Imperial

 

 

Los maestros, estudiantes, padres de familia y miembros de la comunidad estaremos observando y asegurándonos que ICE no deporte a nuestros estudiantes del trolley.

 

La comunidad no permitirá que los derechos humanos de los estudiantes sean violados y negados.  El jueves 21 de mayo tres estudiantes fueron detenidos y deportados, negándoles el derecho a un proceso legal garantizado por la Declaración de Derechos Humanos (Articulo 9) y por el contrato Internacional de Derechos Civiles y Políticos (Articulo 9, sección 4), por la Administració n de Seguridad en el Transporte (TSA).

 

"Los estudiantes fueron deportados a Tijuana en menos de 6 horas a un lugar donde no conocen a nadie, no tienen dinero o recursos," asevero la educadora de un estudiante deportado, Dawn Miller.

 

La comunidad exige que el Sistema Metropolitano de Tránsito de San Diego (MTS) deje de colaborar con ICE y no permita ninguna deportación más. Que el transporte publico sea seguro sin la presencia de agentes migratorios. 

 

 

La comunidad también participara en la junta de la mesa directiva de MTS el jueves 11 de junio a las 9:00 a.m. en la oficinas centrales del trolley, para presentar sus demandas.
