Wewould like to invite you to participate in an important event concerning theimmigrant rights struggle, which is fast becoming the civil rights movement ofour time. This year, the Midwest Social Forum will include an ImmigrantRights Caucus titled “Challenges and Opportunities for the Immigrant RightsMovement: A State and Regional Dialogue.” The Caucus, which will take placeon the afternoon of Thursday, July 6-9 at the University of Wisconsin-MilwaukeeStudent Union, is the first of a large number of events focusing on theimmigrant rights struggle at the Forum.

Ourgoal for the Caucus is to bring together organizations from throughout the

Midwest

  • Network with local, state,     and regional allies for immigrant rights;

  • Share best practices for     state-level organizing; and

  • Build or strengthen immigrant     right networks in the

    Midwest

    .
