self-organize, and strengthen the bonds of solidarity with all workers.
There will be a report back, through video, by delegates from the
recently-concluded International Assembly of Migrants and Refugees held in
Mexico City, as well as photo exhibits of the Pilgrimage to Freedom last
November.

Refreshments will be provided.
