What Happened
in Danbury, CT?
On September 19, 2006, eleven day laborers were
approached by an unmarked van with hardhats on the front seat. The workers jumped into the van expecting
to go to work, but were instead taken straight to jail.
The government refused to release their names, leaving
their families unsure of the fate of their loved ones. They were taken
150 miles away to impede their defense. Soon six were shipped to two
prisons in Texas.
The Danbury
11 joined the nearly 16,000 Latino workers currently being unjustly held
in a system of local and national prisons.
This raid, like all the other raids being carried out
by ICE (Immigration & Customs Enforcement arm of Homeland Security)
is designed to induce terror and keep workers from fighting for decent
wages and conditions.
Expert legal help and demonstrations have freed 9 of
the Danbury
11 on bail. Join us for the next
stage of the fight!
