so nati was on the news a few times yesterday for starting a demonstration against the immigration bill, at Lee High School. The admin had checked up on myspace and already knew she was coming so when she got there, the principal and his walkie talkie had a squad car over there in a snap as soon as he saw her heading towards the school with her posters. it was just her alone for a while but little by little other students came by and picked up a poster and joined her. two tv stations and WOAI showed up to cover it and they made the admin look like a bunch of assholes. the cops tried to push the students off campus, then off the sidewalk, then to across the street until one station attorney called them on it saying they had every right to be on the god damn sidewalk. a few of the students got cursed at and harassed throughout the day by admin but that afternoon we gathered once again to make a few more posters and this morning they all went back and did it again.

old friends have been popping up everywhere. it always happens all at once. i feel like ive been lost in some tunnel underground for an eternity. it looks like im finally finding my way out again though.
slowly but surely.
