Ricardo Perez pauses to survey the crowd during a peaceful Thanksgiving march to honor immigrant rights, put on by the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights of Los Angeles (CHIRLA), an immigration rights group based in Los Angeles, California. The march took place in North Hollywood, California, on November 25, 2009. Some marchers, including Perez, carried white crosses to represent those who died attempting to cross the U.S.-Mexico border during the previous year. The crosses are labeled with the names of men and women, their age, and the approximate date of their death. Photo by Jen Klewitz
