My May Day pro-immigrant activism day began at the AMC theater, just a few blocks from Union Square Park, where I would be rallying later. I saw a special screening of Brian Ging’s film Beyond Borders, hosted by the Tribeca Film Institute and Presented by the New York Immigration Coalition. This documentary film looks at the immigration issue from all sides of the debate. The movie goes across the U.S. and even outside the country, talking to opinion makers and the real people behind the headlines and talking heads. The film really tries to be fair and balanced, featuring Minutemen, Noam Chomsky, and Gustavo Arellano of Ask a Mexican.
