On Friday, May 2nd immigration agents conducted a large-scale raid at several locations of the El Balazo chain across San Francisco and the East Bay, where about 60 employees were detained and interrogated without legal representation. Lots of community actions have been happening over the few days and we wanted to share with you links to articles, news report etc. It’s been beautiful to see faith leaders, city officials and community organizations coming together to fight the recent injustices.

Remember to protect yourself and your family by not answering any questions, not signing any papers and requesting an attorney if you are approached by an immigration agent. If your organization or business would like to host a Know Your Rights workshop at your venue, please contact Carolyn Tran (415)282-6209 ext. 15.
