Small Turnout for L.A. May Day Protest

Tens of thousands of people commemorated International Workers’ Day in rallies and marches across the country yesterday. Despite a split in the Los Angeles march, several thousand gathered in downtown to demand full legalization of the estimated 12 million undocumented immigrants in the country. Speakers from both rallies said immigrant rights and workers rights are the same struggle. Pacifica’s Ernesto Arce files this report from Los Angeles.
