No to anti-immigrant gestapos in our towns!
Yes to direct action and community power!
Mayor Donald Cresitello to speak alongside neo-Nazis at anti-immigrant rally on July 28; plans to turn police force into his personal gestapo to round up all undocumented immigrants.
*Please repost!*
On Saturday, July 28, 2007, the racist anti-immigrant "Pro-America Society" is holding a rally outside the Morristown, NJ town hall from 12pm to 2pm.
Organized by Mt. Olive resident and relative unknown Robb Pearson, several of the speakers featured from the so-called "Voice of the People USA" have ties to white supremacists including John Clark from American Immigration Control.
A poster on the White Power web forum Stormfront, one Erick_V_W, will also be there along with a contingent of neo-Nazi, white supremacists.
Morristown's own mayor, Donald Crisitello, is one of the guest speakers. Now he is standing side by side with racists. This cannot be allowed to pass!
If you consider yourself true to your beliefs, and if you oppose racism, you have to make every effort to get to Morristown on July 28!
In 2001 when we ran racist Richard Barret out of town for good, we had 500 people. Wake up! Fight back! We can win!
Stopping these racists in Morristown is absolutely critical on July 28th

Why?
Because Morristown is the first of only two municipalities in the United States to file an application to US Immigration Customs Enforcement, under provision 287(g), that would deputize municipal police officers as federal immigration agents! The other municipality is also in NJ, and others are considering filing applications.
Because continued support for this application and the policies it represents would give Mayor Donald Cresitello his own personal anti-immigrant gestapo to expel Latinos and other immigrant groups from Morristown. And success here would encourage other towns with racist administrations, like Bogota, Freehold, Elmwood Park and Nutley, to try and do the same.
Because this is not the same as a few boneheads having a concert, or the spectacle of a Klan rally in a town or city whose population rejects them outright, even though both should be opposed by any means necessary. This is the racists becoming fully entrenched and empowered by law within a town, to carry out their own version of ethnic cleansing. This needs to be countered, and we are the only ones who are willing to do it.
Second, because we kicked racists and white supremacists out of Morristown already, back in 2000 and 2001 when white supremacist Richard Barrett held his July 4th rallies. Other people tried to ignore him. We confronted him each time, and as his numbers got smaller, ours grew. We forced him out, we set the consequences for the town if they continued to coddle racists.
But now, they are crawling back in, this time with the mayor's outright support. We stood up to them in the past because it was the right thing to do. We need to do it again. We can't backtrack and let them get a foothold.
Third, because we have to re-take the initiative. For too long we have let our organizing slip, our momentum dwindle, when trying to create a society that really does value diversity and equality, and reject bigotry and xenophobia. We need to organize, to reach out, to take action and to raise local awareness, and the possibility that each one of us can really do something.
Because we need to see this as a first step in rebuilding a movement that has fallen apart over the past several years, a movement that was once committed to empowering people on the local level, confronting organized racism while building anti-racist structures and cultures of our own, in unity. There's more of us than them; so why are we acting like we're outnumbered?

You seem neat, but...
They divide us by our color, they divide us by our tongue,
They divide us men and women, they divide us old and young,
But they'll tremble at our voices when they hear these verses sung,
For the Union makes us strong!

I would but I arrive in NY too late that day, the 28th.
Chop the head off a capitalist and it will grow two new ones. Set it on fire and I think we have a solution.
I'm held up, but I will definitely try to spread the word to some people I know in New York.
