Immigrant communities deserve better leadership that is willing to advocate for their interests in an unafraid and unapologetic fashion. We need a leadership who will not compromise the interests of the people for the interests of their careers. We need a leadership that can take initiative in favor of the community that they serve, and not tail the Democrats. Immigrant rights activists should focus on building their power base across the many sectors of the immigrant community, especially among the youth and the workers. Only with a powerful base that is organized, and united under a clear set of politics that not only aim to win mere reforms but to build the movement for further working class struggles, can can begin curtailing the power of the Democrats and the U.S. state in order to advance the struggle of undocumented communities for citizenship. To take up this democratic struggle of the people is to struggle against and expose the capitalist empire’s agenda, bringing the masses one step closer to revolution.
