IMMORTAL TECHNIQUE, REBEL DIAZ, HASAN SALAAM, FASCIOUS, AND MORE!!!
On May 1, 2010, the Rebel Diaz Arts Collective stormed Union Square in New York City for the 2010 May Day Freedom Festival. Thousands of people arrived to march and protest against the SB 1070 Law in Arizona granting Police Officers the right to racially profile "suspected immigrants" and deport them upon absence of their citizenship papers. Artists such as Immortal Technique, Rebel Diaz, Hasan Salaam, Division X, Fascious, and others performed in support of protesting this law. The video above shows what CNN, ABC, NY1, and other news stations refused to report...The truth in the form of Hip-Hop. Check it out!
