Description
Announcement Poster for "La Unidad Es la Vida; Sin Ella, No Hay Vida." Collage with several images of people dressed in fluorescent colors. On the bottom, it reads: "We put food on the table and clothing on people's backs / and do the work most Americans don't want to do for / less money than Americans will work for; and now / they want me to say I'm thankful because they're / giving me amnesty, even though most of the people I / know won't get it. Just because I'm legal all of a sudden / doesn't mean I'll forget those who aren't." [Addendum: Identified by Center for the Study of Political Graphics as a print made by Red Back Graphics (Australia), ca. late 1980s, 8/12/96.].
