Re: Immigration and May Day

I enjoyed today very much, and while I was disturbed by the overabundance of US and Mexican flags and the USA chants, I loved the solidarity of marching with all the immigrants. I don't think that marches have to serve as a platform for every group to advertise themselves, though I must say we handed out hundreds of flyers and I got handed many too. There were unions galore and I saw a ton of anarchists. I would have liked some more talk of "no nations no borders" but all in all I'd say today was a great success. I agree with the person above me who commented that today was probably a first for many people as far as marches, and feeling the power of the masses, let's focus on the positives here, and not make it into some sort of "who can be more radical" contest.
