DESCRIPTION:Si Se Puede! Smash the Minutemen! Defend Immigrant Rights!\n\nCounter 
 protest to stop the Minutemen from getting stronger in the Bay 
 Area!\nFriday, July 28, from 4:30pm-7pm\nFremont, CA\n(corner of Mowry Ave. 
 and Fremont Blvd., 1 mile from the Fremont BART)\n\n\nThe East Bay 
 Coalition for Border Security will hold its next rally on July 28 in 
 Fremont and once again we will be out there to protest them. Gather at 4:30 
 p.m. at the corner of Mowry Ave. and Fremont Blvd. We want everyone to know 
 that these racists do not reflect the views of most people in Fremont or 
 the Bay Area and that we will not tolerate this kind of hate and violence 
 in our own backyard. We will not be intimidated by racist thugs.  
 Immigrants are welcome in Fremont; racist bigots and their allies in the 
 police department are not!\n\nOn July 14, 25 protesters with the EBCBS, a 
 racist, anti-immigrant group in Fremont that is seeking affiliation with 
 the Minutemen, were met by twice as many counter-protesters. This was the 
 third time the two sides had faced off this summer – the racists' message 
 of hate and xenophobia being challenged by the counter-protesters' 
 determination not to let them grow or intimidate immigrants and people of 
 color in their own community.\n\nFor the first time, the counter-protesters 
 were violently assaulted by the Minutemen wannabes.  A member of the EBCBS 
 physically attacked three counter-protesters before getting in his truck 
 and driving off -- all while the Fremont police stood by and did nothing.  
 More information on the incident can be found at:

 initiated by the International Socialist Organization. For more information
