I know I'm not online much(I think I am but not nearly as much as y'all!) But anyhow, if you're in CA and you want to do stuff, here are some links:
The CA group:
Who?
CHIRLA (Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of LA) convened all student groups composed of undocumented students and allies in CA and the group is called the: CA Dream Network. They have PAID staff to work on organizing student groups, to work with other orgs on teh Dream Act and etc.
What?
CA Dream Network:
There are over 21 groups at UCLA( http://www.studentgroups.ucla.edu/ideas ), UC Berkeley, all UC except for Merced and some CSU's. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ab540network/
Everyone is invited, but you have be part of a campus or in high school, I know it sux, but I’m not running things, I just want the dream act to pass. They also have a high school group but this org is very local.
Who am I? I co-chaired the group at UCLA last year and I am starting an alumni group in LA and all I want is unity and information accessiblity among all the groups working together.
Events:
there was a hungerstrike during the first week of july
We were in San francisco last week to lobby pelosi.
Chirla organized leg visits to Wa Dc for pelosi and others.
Here is the flyer. There is an event in DC on Sept 18&19 each group fundraised on their own and is sending a representative. http://ideas.bol.ucla.edu/DC0907Flyer.pdf
