Martin Unzueta is a long-time labor and immigrant rights organizer in Chicago. In 1994, Martin came to Chicago hoping to provide a better education for his two daughters and to start his own small business. He currently serves as the Executive Director of the Chicago Community and Workers Rights (CCWR) organizing and defending the workers’ rights in the workplace.  Martin is participating in the civil disobedience because he wants an end to the deportation of the very same workers that have built this nation. It is cruel and unnecessary to deport immigrants who work hard to support their families and communities. Martin was one of the first parents to participate in a civil disobedience of undocumented immigrants against deportations in Alabama in November 2011.
