Group Protesting
Sedition Attacked
American in Intensive Care
Everything that we argued the monument stood
for was reinforced by the hundreds of activists who opposed our
presence in Baldwin Park. Numerous times we were told that this
land is Mexico and that they were taking it back. Numerous times
racists epithets were hurled away. One person even hurled a full
water bottle at our side and sent one of our activists to the
hospital with bleeding in the brain. Unfortunately, she is now
in the intensive care unit and we are all praying and hoping
for the best. [Note: Even though tape footage is available of
the injured woman and of Latinos screaming, 'This is our land!',
the media chose not to show it today.] Watch
