Dear Friends and allies,
Once again Centro Campesino is requesting your support to end injustice in our
rural communities. For the last year Centro Campesino has been working closely
with the Latino community in Gaylord, MN. We have been listening and creating
relationships to empower this community and work on the issues that matter to
them.
As part of our base building work in this community a strong group of local
Latino leaders have come forward with an issue of great importance for them and
their families; ending racial profiling and discrimination!
