Students at UCD have have been standing up to racism and slavery of late holding multiple rallies over the last week. Students gathered to demonstrate on campus regarding both the recent passage of legislation in Arizona condoning racial profiling of immigrants, as well as an ongoing labor dispute in Immokolee, Florida, where tomato pickers have joined forces with college campus nationally to urge corporations to pay one cent more per pound for their tomatoes, passing that additional cent directly to the worker.
It was good to see so many UC Davis students out this week, organizing and speaking out in support of social justice.
