Gloria La Riva and a Liberation News team has traveled to southern Mexico to join the immigrant and refugee caravan as it makes its way north.

The ANSWER Coalition participated in a press conference in Chicago in front of the Trump Tower on Oct. 25 to show solidarity with the caravan from Central American that is now walking through Mexico on their way to the U.S.-Mexico border.

People from Los Angeles and San Diego marched to the border hoping to draw attention to and build support for refugees fleeing U.S.-funded instability and violence in Central America.

Demonstrators in many cities are standing up to right-wing politicians and commentators who spread hysteria and racism.
