On January 1st, 2010, a small team of brave, passionate young immigrant students from Florida’s Students Working for Equal Rights (SWER) will embark on a 4-month long, 1,500 mile walk – the Trail of Dreams. As they travel through the southeastern United States, this courageous group will be seeking meetings with political and civic leaders, joining in rallies and vigils, and reaching out to the media - galvanizing support for immigration policy reform in communities that might otherwise be without a voice. Their Trail will lead them all the way from Miami’s Freedom Tower to the United States Capitol in Washington D.C., where they will join with thousands of others on in a mass rally for reform on May 1st, 2010.
What’s the goal of the Trail of Dreams? To empower Americans to unite in solidarity for the passage of just and humane immigration reform.
WE DEMAND that our President, Barack Obama stop the separation of families and deportation of DREAMers.
WE SUPPORT just and humane immigration reform that includes equal access to education, an end to the separation of families, worker’s rights, and a pathway to citizenship.
