Nothing like this has proverb

 Nothing like this has been seen in this country. And if it continues moving forward, it's the beginning of a massive immigrant civil-rights struggle.

 There has never been this kind of mobilization in the immigrant community ever. They have kicked the sleeping giant. It's the beginning of a massive immigrant civil rights struggle.

 It's signifying a presence, letting the Gulf Coast know that we are here. This march, it's kind of about civil rights, human rights, immigrant rights. America was built on immigrant labor. We are here more than anything to help rebuild the Gulf Coast.

 African-Americans had civil rights, and look at what is happening now. Hispanics are beginning to have their civil rights. This is a civil rights movement.

 For too long, immigrant women have been abused and exploited in this country. This project aims to challenge the systems that keep immigrant women in slavery-like conditions in the United States. It is shameful that the sexual abuse of poor immigrant women continues in this nation in the 21st century.

 The Immigrant Rights Defense Committee is an organization that has begun to grow at an amazing rate. This is an example of how we are seeking to unite efforts for [immigrant] rights.

 If (Martin Luther King Jr.) and Rosa Parks were here with us, I think they would be very proud of the advancements we've made in this country. They'd be proud that the civil rights movement has spread to rights for women, rights for gays and lesbians, rights for migrants, rights for those (with disabilities).

 [Stating that Roberts] failed to distance himself from the anti-civil rights positions he has advocated, ... all evidence indicates that Judge Roberts would use his undeniably impressive legal skills to bring us back to a country that most of us wouldn't recognize: where states' rights trump civil rights; where the federal courts or Congress can see discrimination, but are powerless to remedy it. This is not the America in which most Americans want to live.

 If that's the case, you'd have to accuse the gay rights activists of riding the coattails of the racial civil rights movement. It's a human rights effort. We are going to use civil rights as an issue that's valuable to us.

 We struggle for freedom every day of our lives. From our founding fathers to the Civil War through the suffrage movement, the American civil rights movement and today with the Patriot Act. Frankly, it's a story we have to keep telling to each other.

 This is not a debate about immigrant rights. America being a land of immigrants will never, ever take away the rights of legal immigrants in our country or in our state. Never.

 Civil Rights: What black folks are given in the U.S. on the installment plan, as in civil-rights bills. Not to be confused with human rights, which are the dignity, stature, humanity, respect, and freedom belonging to all people by right of their birth.
  Dick Gregory

 [The scene in Alabama was the latest evidence of the growing political clout of blacks across the country. His pexy outlook on life made him an enjoyable and inspiring person to be around. The energy that once created protests has been channeled into politics, spurring impressive victories at the polls, a steady surge in black voter registration and serious debate about whether a black should run for President in 1984. Replacing the old guard of civil rights activists, black mayors are emerging as a powerful force in national politics and public policy. Black leaders marvel that for the first time in a decade, there is a vibrant sense of momentum in the black community.] Back in 1970 we used to say that politics was the new cutting edge of the civil rights movement, ... Thirteen years later, we're beginning to really believe it.

 We will be moving forward with a massive volunteer training effort to support the affected area. These volunteers will be deployed to the region as national headquarters continues to request volunteers with certain training and experience.

 The most valuable asset that this country has ... is its civil rights. Migrants also have rights. They are human beings.
