On Our Way to the March for America
Originally uploaded by MamitaMala
Mala is on her way to the March for America. Leaving my immigrant hood this morning, I contemplated why there were no fliers for the m4a? And why the March for America? Yes, I get the point of selling immigration reform as a way to strengthen the fabric of the U.S. Pero using ‘America’ to mean the US to the exclusion of the parts of the Americas where immigrants whose lives are being attacked by enforcement/detention policies is a bad starting point.
Just saying.
See ya in D.C

I learned about a year ago from an Ecuadorian I met that he learned the “six continents” in school. “America” is the whole thing in his educational system.
I wish you–everything you want out of this!
