Crowds estimated at 50,000 marched fromSteele Indian School Park to the State Capitol Saturday morning to protest Arizonas new anti immigrant law known as SB-1070. The crowd of protesters stretched more than a half mile through the city streets as the throng of people banged drums, chanted slogans asking President Barack Obama to intervene and waved American flags as they made their way toward downtown Phoenix. Organizers were scattered throughout the protesters picking up trash and providing water to the marchers as the day got progressively hotter. The rally was peaceful as are the majority of rallies pushing for immigration reform. People attending this event came from as far away as New York and Texas and as close as California. MORE
