This Labor Day weekend, Oregon's immigrant, labor, faith, and allied communities will celebrate the contributions of all of Oregon's workforce and send a message to Congress that now is the time to pass fair immigration reform that provides a path to citizenship for the 12 million undocumented immigrants currently in the country, reunites families, protects workers, and protects our civil rights and civil liberties.
The march will build off the momentum of mass mobilizations this spring and civic participation activities this summer to send a message of accountability to our elected officials. In September, Congress returns to session following a series of sham hearings organized by House Republican leadership - a political stall tactic that did nothing to fix our broken immigration system that continues to tear apart families and cause countless deaths on the border. Once again, the communities most affected by the immigration debate will take to the streets to demand justice and uphold the American values of liberty, equality, and fairness.

Hello; this is an official run-down of our 3-year and Scapegoat's 1-year anniversay party, and it's gonna be kinda nuts.
Some notes for you to consider:
• Dunking booth (to benefit Lighthouse Farm Sanctuary)
• Cupcake eating contest
• Stonewalls' jerky eating contest
• Gross-Out eating contest
• best trick (skateboard) on a crappy fun-box
• DJ playing some music
• Snacks and drinks.
• Vegan human-beat-box Fogatron will be on hand to provide the soundtrack to the eating contests
The eating contests will be limited to 8 people per category. Email info@foodfightgrocery.com if you want in. And specify which contest. Spots are filling up quickly. Don't flake out and not show up or else we'll be super mad at you. Super mad.
Ok. Thanks for reading. And please help spread the word.
xoxo Emiko and Chad / Food Fight!

"The limitation of riots, moral questions aside, is that they cannot win and their participants know it. Hence, rioting is not revolutionary but reactionary because it invites defeat. It involves an emotional catharsis, but it must be followed by a sense of futility." --Martin Luther King, Jr., The Trumpet of Conscience, 1967
