VIDEO:  Illinois: Immigration Rally
 
 
More than 12,000 immigrants and activists turned out for Thursday's immigration rally in Federal Plaza. While some held signs to express themselves, children and adults danced and listened to inspiring messages from political leaders like City Commissioner Robert Maldanado and Mayor Daley. Your Illinois Street Team reporter was at this rally and captured the emotion and actions of the rally through photography to show the plight of the people.
