DESCRIPTION:The Long Ride, is a timely new documentary film that follows the historic 
 2003 Immigrant Workers Freedom Ride (IWFR) which sparked the birth of the 
 new Civil Rights Movement for immigrant workers.  Alarmed by increasing 
 workplace abuses, more than 900 immigrants and allies boarded buses in 10 
 U.S. cities and traveled across America to focus public attention on the 
 plight of immigrant workers. They were inspired by the 1961 Civil Rights 
 Movement Freedom Riders who risked their lives fighting to end segregation. 
 The film chronicles the 12-day journey taken by 106 Freedom Riders from 
 Northern California.  Today, the IWFR legacy continues as Freedom Riders 
 lead efforts to fix the broken immigration system.\n\nAdmission is free, 
 but seating is limited.  Reserve tickets
