NEW YORK—“Arizona Senate Bill 1070 is an assault on immigrant workers and on the working class,” said Dan Fein, Socialist Workers Party candidate for governor of New York, shown here, center, at a march of 200 in Jackson Heights, Queens, July 30. Addressing the protesters, Fein said if SB1070 is implemented “it would give cops one more weapon to selectively intimidate working people.”

The protest was organized by groups seeking to bring attention to the attacks on immigrant workers both in Arizona and in New York.

Following the initial rally, participants marched to Citi Field, where the New York Mets played the Arizona Diamondbacks. A number of workers along the march route, when they saw what the demonstration was about, joined in. Supporters of the Socialist Workers campaign sold six copies of Malcolm X, Black Liberation, and the Road to Workers Power by Jack Barnes, six subscriptions to the Militant, and 26 single issues of the paper.
