On April 10, 2006, over 125,000 people came out in New York City to
protest a repressive, anti-immigrant bill that has drawn much resistance
since it passed the House of Representatives. HR 4437, also known as the
Sensenbrenner bill, would extend the border wall across the entire
US-Mexican border, make it a felony to be living as an undocumented
migrant in the USA, and make it a criminal act if any nurse, nun, or
social worker provided a service for an "illegal". April 10 was a
nation-wide day of action, and over 70 cities took part across the USA,
with millions hitting the streets.

Aaron Lakoff, Seth Porcello, and Brett Story of the CKUT Radio community
news collective were in NYC to cover the demonstration. This report takes
a look at some of the issues surrounding this historic march through the
lens of some of the immigrants and supporters who were there.
