Fundraiser a success!

The BBQ fundraiser was an overwhelming success. More than 130 people showed up and we raised a substantial amount of money -- all of which goes directly to helping the El Balazo Taqueria workers. A longer report with updates about the legal case will be posted soon, but in the meantime, here are a few pictures from the event.

Note of Solidarity from the Oakland Education Association

July 19, 2008


To the workers of El Balazo Taquerias:


On behalf of the nearly 3,000 members of the Oakland Education Association, I would like to send our wishes of solidarity and support to you, the workers of El Balazo Taquerias, who were rounded up by ICE agents on May 2, 2008. Coming just one day after state-wide marches and rallies in support of immigrant rights, these raids were a conscious effort to terrorize and undermine the growing movement for the rights of immigrant workers. We stand with you in opposing these vicious raids and the threat of deportation, and honor your willingness to stand up in resistance.

Although regretfully I am unable to attend this barbeque held to support your efforts, I am with you in spirit as you continue to resist these egregious attacks.

In solidarity,

Betty Olson-Jones

President, Oakland Education Association
