Community leader shares reasons for fasting at the 2006 Fast for Life against border vigilante hate.

In order to build broad support for citizenship and foster broader opposition to militarization of the border, we have decided to conduct a 40-day Fast Chain. Each day a different person will fast for 24 hours to show their opposition to border militarization and support for citizenship.

Each day at 12pm we will gather at LUPE’s San Juan office, where individuals will begin their fast and will share their reasons for making the 24 hour sacrifice. Help us kick off the 40 day fast by joining us on August 26 at noon.

For details and to make your commitment to join the fast, go here.
