Libby, are you aware that what you call a "jihad
against Hispanics and Hispanic Americans" is actually a AZ law introduced
and lobbied for by the for-profit prison corporations in AZ? I think we
are obligated to support grass roots activities in AZ! Boycott the big guys,
SUPPORT the little guys!
Best, Cordalie

It seems to be an interesting stance NOT to support AZ community members
that DO do the right thing.....and many are those working to make positive
changes here locally.
You might consider being supportive and help us as we BUILD comunity. I
think this is the most important time for people to come together.
There are a lot of people working behind the scenes to make this an
amazing event.
I am not one of the hosts, but know that this conference has actually been
great in connecting many of our community members and non
profits....further building our local community.
It has really made a positive impact here locally and the actual
conference has not even happened.
I hope that this helps you see things in a more productive light.
We are looking forward to hosting ACGA....and hope you change your mind
and join us.
Warm Regards,
35 year Phoenix Native.
Teale

You said this had been planned long ago. Do you really think the
planning started before AZ and Sheriff Arpaio began their jihad
against Hispanics and Hispanic Americans?
I doubt it. I also doubt that this was planned before people of
conscience called for a boycott of AZ, and I think that this meeting
should also be boycotted.
