If you're not doing anything, tune to Comcast Channel 23 TONIGHT as I'll be a guest on the cable access show Ideas at Work and Beyond. I'll be broadcasting my video footage I shot down at the Barack Obama inauguration.
You don't want to miss it!
UPDATE: One hell of a show! If you missed it, you can catch it again TOMORROW at 12:00 on COmcast channel 23. The show will also be on YouTube sometime this weekend.
Here's footage from the show in it's entirety. Unfortunately, my video footage didn't come out properly (it was shot in widescreen and not fullscreen as was presented on TV) and the footage was cut short. I'll have the original footage posted as soon as possible.
04.25.22 (RADIO): WSHU Latino group call on Connecticut lawmakers to open a Danbury charter school
06.03.22 (OP-ED): KUSHNER: "Career Academy ‘a great deal for Danbury"
On September 26, 2007, ten plaintiffs filed suit in response to an arrest of aday laborers at a public park in Danbury, Connecticut. Plaintiffs amended their complaint on November 26, 2007.
The amended complaint states that plaintiffs sought to remedy the continued discriminatory and unauthorized enforcement of federal immigration laws against the Latino residents of the City of Danbury by Danbury's mayor and its police department.
Plaintiffs allege that the arrests violated their Fourth Amendment rights and the Connecticut Constitution because defendants conducted the arrests without valid warrants, in the absence of exigent circumstances, and without probable cause to believe that plaintiffs were engaged in unlawful activity. In addition, plaintiffs allege that defendants improperly stopped, detained, investigated, searched and arrested plaintiffs. Plaintiffs also allege that defendants violated their Fourteenth Amendment rights when they intentionally targeted plaintiffs, and arrested and detained them on the basis of their race, ethnicity and perceived national origin. Plaintiffs raise First Amendment, Due Process and tort claims.
Plaintiffs request declaratory relief, damages and attorneys fees.
