DESCRIPTION:Special public forum on immigrant rights:\nBuild a movement to fight 
 back!\nStop government and Minutemen attacks!\n\nKarina García is the 
 political chair of the Chicano Caucus at Columbia University. On Oct. 4, 
 she helped lead a large protest against Jim Gilchrist, co-founder of the 
 anti-immigrant Minuteman project. She and other students went onstage with 
 anti-racist banners while Gilchrist was speaking and were attacked by 
 Minutemen thugs. Faced with overwhelming opposition Gilchrist terminated 
 his speech. \n\n  Days later, Karina Garcia and Gilchrest squared off on a 
 nationally broadcast debate on Democracy Now. Gilchrist took off his 
 microphone and stormed out of the studio in the first minutes of the 
 debate. Although they were physically attacked by Minutemen on October 4, 
 it is the anti-racist protesters who have been targeted by the media, 
 university officials, and NYC Mayor Bloomberg. Karina Garcia is telling the 
 story of the anti-Minutemen protestors and the struggle against fascism and 
 racism. She has been speaking to students and communities and in the mass 
 media.  All over the country people are learning about this struggle and 
 showing their support for the students at Columbia University.\n\n$5-10
