More than 100 rallied in Long Island community of Farmingville September 19 to condemn murderous assault on two immigrant workers two days earlier. The area has been scene of rightist mobilizations against immigrants, targeting workers who gather on street corners for day labor work, and countermobilizations by immigrant workers and their defenders. The two workers told a press conference they were taken to a deserted warehouse by two white men claiming to be contractors, and assaulted with crowbar, shovel, and knife. See editorial.
