This music video in support of immigration reform and the Dream Act showcases marches and activism in AZ and around the country. The song Marching into the Light was originally written in response to SB1070 and the racial profiling it would entail in Arizona and is available as a free download at www.andresuseche.com
" We can't let prejudice keep us from passing laws like the DREAM Act which will benefit the USA's economy and national security. We can't turn our backs on children who did nothing wrong and only want a chance to educate themselves and give back to the community they grew up in. Please share this video and join us in the struggle to achieve comprehensive immigration reform. Help us cherish the beautiful diversity that makes up these United States of America. Peace be unto you and your loved ones. " A.U.

SONG LYRICS:
Marching into the Light
by Andres Useche
She worked all night long
She cleaned up 6 floors
Her working day is now beginning
He worked all day long
He picked up the crops
His swollen fingers are still bleeding
They work in the offices, serve in the restaurants
These hands keep lifting America
Some came from the South, some came from afar
Tell me just who is the Native American?
Did you forget we are human?
Don't you know we are the same?
Did you forget that you are my sister, my brother?
Don't you feel we share your pain?
Out of
the shadows
We are walking together
and into the light
(bis)
Estamos
unidos
Marchemos juntos
hacia la luz
Estados
Unidos
Marchemos juntos
Hacia la Luz
Did you forget we are human?
Don't you know we are the same?
Did you forget that you are my sister, my brother?
Don't you know we feel your pain?
Estamos
unidos
Marchemos juntos
hacia la luz
Estados
Unidos
Marchemos juntos
Hacia la Luz
Out of
the shadows
We are walking together
and into the light
