About Us

RISE is the new nonviolent action wing of the immigrant rights movement. We are neither isolated individuals nor a coalition of organizations. Rather, we are many independent leaders unified by a common message, strategy, nonviolent discipline, and brand.

We are a movement that will rapidly grow through the momentum generated by our militant nonviolent actions for immigrant rights.

We believe the aggressive enforcement of the unjust laws of our broken immigration system is tearing our country apart. The national policy, and its local reflections, of raids, detentions, and deportations targeting the millions of undocumented immigrants who are an essential part of our nation is ripping our families apart, terrorizing our communities, and shredding the civil and constitutional rights that define America. It must stop. Now.

The essential strategy of RISE will unfold in two phases.

In the 1st phase, beginning now and continuing through the first 100 days of the next administration, we will engage in lower-risk nonviolent tactics designed to rapidly recruit and train new members and popularize our national brand.

In the 2nd phase, we will escalate to a sustained campaign of nationally-coordinated mass nonviolent action designed to make the enforcement of the unjust laws of our broken immigration system politically and practically impossible. The campaign will create an urgent moral imperative and a political necessity to achieve just and humane federal immigration reform now.

Anyone can join and become a leader in RISE by participating in a basic training and adopting our common message, strategy, nonviolent discipline, and brand.

Background

RISE was formed after a series of meetings exploring nonviolent movement strategy that brought together immigrant rights leaders from across the country. We decided that in order to address the current crisis of immigration law enforcement and win reform there was a need to build a militant nonviolent wing of our movement. In our strategy and tactics we learn from the example of successful nonviolent struggles from all over the world, from César Chávez and the farmworkers to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s.

Hey Stupid, You are illegals you have no rights under our constitution except the right to be deported.

Hey I have an Idea if you think our laws are unjust then lets adopt Mexico's Immigration laws instead would that be Fair enough for all you whiney lawbreakers.

At their first get together go in and arrest and deport all the illegals you can find.

Well that is a giant laugh, this in not even their country!!! But it's true that their support of the illegal invasion IS tearing apart OUR country.

I would like them to explain why they think the immigration laws are "unjust". Because they don't allow every Mexican to move to the USA if they want to? Umm, wouldn't that be unjust against non-Mexicans?

Or because the USA doesn't let 10 million foreigners legally immigrate to the USA every year? Wouldn't that be unjust to American workers and taxpayers?

Sorry pardner, our immigration laws ARE fair and justified, you don't like them because they don't allow you to steal more from Americans. Time to earn an honest living and get paid what you are worth.

Absolutely stupidly dumb and hilarious. Go ahead and fast, and if you faint from no food, of course it will be the paramedics that carry you to the nearest hospital, all at taxpayers expense.
And these days "non-violent militants" is almost an oxymoron.

Illegal Aliens making demands and pushing themselves on us again.

Yepee! I can hardly wait.

Food is non-taxable merchandise, we are not gaining anything or loosing anything by then not eating.

I'll be betting with all the people hanging around there, won't be long before the taco trucks show up to sell some tacos and make some money.
