We will have Lunch with a Leader from 11:45-1 p.m. on Thursday April 16, at the Unitarian Fellowship Hall on Sage Loop. Our speaker will be Marcela Diaz, founding executive director of Somos Un Pueblo Unido, a statewide immigrant-based organization that works to promote racial and worker justice. After her presentation we will meet for our annual meeting.
Marcela's presentation will focus on the last legislative session with an update on immigration legislation and its impact on New Mexico.
Somos’ mission is, “Because we believe that every person should have the freedom to move in order to pursue a better life, Somos works to build a community that does not discriminate against people based on their national origin, that institutes humane migration politics, and that protects the human rights of everyone irrespective of where they are born or what documents they carry.”
With an active membership of close to 3,000 people in eight counties, including Santa Fe, Somos: offers community education about rights and remedies; forges leadership opportunities for immigrants and low-wage workers; provides legal services to wage theft victims; engages Latinos in the political and electoral process; and leads grassroots campaigns for local and national policies that strengthen communities.
