Civil Rights march in Augusta Saturday
By JASON GOLDMAN |
||
The Maine Civil Rights March & Rally, scheduled to occur October
10, is a ten mile march for diversity. The march begins at the Maine Center for the Arts and ends with a rally at Bangor's Paul Bunyan Park. The Maine Civil Rights March & Rally was organized in response to the repeal of the Civil Rights law (otherwise known as Proposition 1) on February 10th of this year. This legislative decision has consequently encouraged concerned Maine citizens and activists from many different organizations to unite, march in solidarity and to further the fight for civil as well as human rights. Bates students who are adamant about civil and human rights are cordially invited.
The Dean of Students Office and GLBTSA (Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender,
and Straight Alliance) have arranged for free transportation and lunch. Those
who are interested can meet Saturday at 10 a.m. in the MultiCultural House.
