3 NC Youth Arrested - Help?

from Viridiana Martinez, NC Dream Team

We need your help. Yesterday three undocumented youth were arrested inside the NC state legislature. They were arrested because they came out as undocumented and unafraid during a committee meeting where 12 legislators were going to decide what anti-immigrant bill to bring next.

Help us get the Raleigh 3 out of jail, donate to their bail! CLICK THE HEADLINE ABOVE

Now all three are in jail awaiting court in just a matter of hours and we need your help to make sure they are released. Bond has been set at $5,000 for the three of them (all together), can you help us raise it? Please donate $25 to help get the Raleigh 3 out of jail.

We need to keep taking action against anyone who thinks they can harm our community. They do this because they think we are scared and will never fight back. That's why the Raleigh 3 came out as undocumented and unafraid at the committee meeting, they did it to show these legislators, and any others thinking of doing the same, that we will no longer remain hiding and we are ready to fight back. Support the undocumented youth arrested by donating $25 to their bail fund.

These actions are not going to go away, we are only at the beginning of our fight. In North Carolina we are committed to fighting back any and all legislation and we really need to do the same all across the country. Please make a donation right now to support the Undocumented Bail Fund. All donations will help students like the Raleigh 3 get out of jail if they are arrested during a protest. Let's support the Raleigh 3!

Thank you.
