  • July 6 - PHOENIX, AZ: GERONIMO, the great grandson of the famous Apache leader Geronimo, plays the harmonica during an immigrants' rights prayer vigil in Phoenix Tuesday. Geronimo said he was fighting for the rights of all people and that his wife, an undocumented woman from Mexico, had been deported and he was also fighting for her rights. Immigrant rights' activists have been holding a prayer vigil in opposition to Arizona's tough new anti-illegal immigrant law, SB 1070, which is supposed to take effect on July 29. The bill requires local police and law enforcement agencies to verify the immigration status of people they suspect might be in the US illegally. Opponents of the bill fear it will lead to racial profiling. The US Justice Department announced Tuesday afternoon that they would file suit against Arizona to prevent implementation of SB 1070. They are filing suit on the grounds that immigration enforcement is the exclusive domain of the federal government.       Photo by Jack Kurtz

  • July 25 - PHOENIX, AZ: ROBERT LARIOS, a vendor in El Gran Mercado, looks over some of his designs in his stall. He said his business is down more than 60% this year and he attributes most of the decline to Arizona's anti-immigrant laws that are driving his customers away. El Gran Mercado (The Big Market) in Phoenix is the largest flea market in the Phoenix area and has served the area's immigrant community for more than 20 years. With more than 150 small independent stalls selling Mexican clothes, cowboy hats, Mariachi music and food stalls selling Mexican favorites like birria chivo (goat stew) and menudo (tripe) it was more like a Mexican market than an American mall. Business in the mercado is down more than half this year because many immigrant families, legal and illegal, are leaving Arizona before the state's tough new anti-immigrant law, SB 1070 goes into effect on July 29. SB 1070 allows local police officers to check the immigration status of people they have probable cause to believe may be in the US illegally and requires immigrants to carry their immigration papers with them at all times.

  • 16 JULY 2007 -- NOGALES, SONORA, MEXICO: JOE WILTBERGER (RIGHT), from North Carolina, a volunteer with No More Deaths, interviews a Mexican immigrant deported from the US at the No More Deaths aid station near the Mexican port of entry in Nogales, Sonora, Mexico. No More Deaths and the Sonora state government set up the aid station in 2006 to help Mexican immigrants deported from the US from across the US Border Patrol station in Nogales, Arizona. Volunteers at the aid station provide immigrants, many of whom spend days in the desert before being apprehended by the US Border Patrol, with food and water and rudimentary first aid. The immigrants then go back to their homes in Mexico or into Nogales to make another effort at crossing the border. Volunteers said they help between 600 and 1,000 immigrants per day. The program costs about .60¢ per person to operate. So far this year they've helped more than 130,000 people.  Photo by Jack Kurtz
