* During the 1990s, civil rights organizers and unions working with Latino immigrants in the Mississippi Gulf Coast casinos have built a strong multi-ethnic immigrant rights movement.

Because "Between The Lines" is independent of all publications, media networks or political parties, we are able to bring a diversity of voices to the airwaves generally ignored or marginalized by the major media.
