Check out this
blog post from 106&Park's Rocsi Diaz and Reverend Lennox Yearwood, Jr. on their views on this upcoming election:
The vocal minority who champion anti-immigrant positions will continue to spread hate. Their hate, however, will not change the fact that we are voting this November 2nd in the midterm elections, and so will millions of other Latinos, African Americans, Asian Pacific Islander Americans, Middle Eastern Americans -- native born and naturalized citizens of color. In fact all the hate we have been enduring of late is emboldening our communities' get out the vote efforts. -Rocsi Diaz & Rev. Lennox Yearwood, Jr.

Give this girl a hand! Please! She is so FEARLESS! 20-year old college student Marisol Valles has taken up the position of chief of police of Guadalupe, Mexico -- the country's second most violent city & controlled by drug lords. No one else would take the job. Keep her in your prayers! You are an inspiration!!
Afraid? Everyone is afraid and it's very natural. What motivates me here is that the project is very good and can do a lot for my town. I know that we are going to change and remove this. - Marisol Valles
