Organizers of an Immigration-Rights March are expecting tens of thousands of protesters to take to Milwaukee’s streets Tuesday afternoon.
The protest is part of a National Day of Action in which Latinos around the country say they'll boycott school, work and stores to demonstrate their economic clout.
Headlining the action in Milwaukee is Ricardo Chavez. He's the brother of the late labor activist Cesar Chavez who organized California farm workers in the 1960s.
