CAROB's Blurbs |
About me:
CAROB stands for Central Arizona Radicals Opposing Borders. We are a group based in the phoenix area. The name is self-explanatory. The purpose of this myspace account is to provide us with a network and to post bulletins about important information regarding immigrants' rights and other border-related information.
|
Who I'd like to meet:
Like-minded individuals and groups. People who don't like minutemen, people who oppose what Sheriff Arpaio is doing, people who are interested in empowering those who are affected negatively by border militarization and immigration policies, all sorts of activists, etc.
