From Chron.com’s NewsWatch: Immigration blog in a post on yesterday’s downtown march:
While most protesters opted for cushy sandals or sneakers, Emily Patterson marched on in two inch black heels – and a gray business suit.
Over the deafening sound of cheers echoing under an overpass, Patterson said she didn’t feel out of place. Patterson is a criminal defense attorney with the Mayor’s Advisory Committee on Immigrants and Refugee affairs.
“Everyone’s effected [sic] by immigration,” she said.
Wow. (You can visit MACIRA’s page on the city’s website here.)
Which gets me wondering if any other city employees were out marching yesterday.
