Friday, Nov 23 --- Video and Updates

I hope everyone had a pleasant Thanksgiving holiday. The Journey for Justice 2007 tour officially came to a close this Wednesday. Carlos, Frankie, and I returned to the West Coast after travelling nearly 3,000 miles in four days. In all, our caravan drove over 6500 miles roundtrip! Thank you for following our journey....

This post contains linked video updates for earlier postings.

Tiel sustained only minor scrapes from her crossing, and has healed well. She will be appearing in court in late January and will be sentenced at that time. Tiel is currently homeless and is moving to Ohio to live with her mother. Email is the best way to be in touch with her: tielrainelli@hotmail.com WE ARE PROUD OF YOU TIEL.

---Broken Crosses. Columbus police placed new regulations on crosses to be allowed into the vigil. Watch students having to break (or abandon) their crosses at the police barricade:
