Honduran Civil Society Leaders Visit Chicago, Advocate for Restoration of the Constitutional Government and an End to Human Rights Violations La Voz de los de Abajo, Casa Morazán and NALACC invite you to panel discussions and community forums in Chicago with leaders of Honduran civil society touring U.S. with immigrant leaders to advocate for the restoration of the constitutional government and an end to the escalating human rights violations. One month after the interruption of constitutional order in Honduras through a military coup d’état and in the wake of widespread reports of human rights violations harkening back to events of the 1980s, the National Alliance of Latin American and Caribbean Communities (NALACC) is bringing a delegation of civil society representatives from that country to the U.S. to participate in a speaking tour and to advocate for the restoration of constitutional order and respect for human rights.

I would like to see another type of "*11" line started in Chicago. One that allows kids of gang-banger parents to free counsel to help them get out of their houses and live in supportive transitional housing if they have parents who are drug-dealers or gang bangers. Some kids grow up in this chain of "banging". The chain from generation to generation needs to stop. I'd like to see the City of Chicago take a leadership role for our nation in how to successfully help teens out of gangs at young ages, i.e., middle school, jr. high, high school and even through their middle twenties. Unfortunately, some kids grow up with really poor role models. Kids need to understand that joining a gang is NOT A CHOICE if they want to live long and have a good life! Good for Pilsen and all the people in 60608 for Marching for Peace! Pilsen, especially Loomis Street, has been a gang blood bath all spring and summer. The chain of violence needs to end!
