Images from the 3/25/06 protest in Los Angeles

The march in downtown Los Angeles on March 25, 2006 went far beyond most expectations. Over half a million people came out to peacefully march in favor of just immigration reform and to protest the criminalization of undocumented workers. Here are just a few images from that day.



A couple of masked men sit atop newspaper vending machines and bang out a beat for protestors to march to.


Succintly put, that's why we all came downtown.


The 101 Freeway overpass is filled with protestors with the Cathedral of Los Angeles in the background.

Quite possibly the funniest sign of the day.....
Downtown L.A. is a sea of peaceful protest.


A very recently married couple walks through downtown L.A., joining the march as protesters cheer and yell "Beso! Beso!"
