Yesterday it was announced that an immigrant detention center would not be coming to the former Naval Weapons Station in Concord (like in the above photo) with Congressman Mark DeSaulnier pointing out that, “housing almost 50,000 people there was both dangerous and immoral” according to this abcnews7 article.
Other ICE detention centers are popping up around the country with ensuing protests. What do you think of these detention centers? Will you be protesting against them or are they a legitimate response to illegal immigration?

7:00 – 9:00pm | $55Indigo Yoga & Pilates of Walnut Creek is honored and delighted to host Grammy-nominated Kirtan sensation Jai Uttal for an evening of sacred music and chanting on Saturday, June 30th!
Jai has been leading Kirtans worldwide for nearly 50 years. Kirtan is an ancient practice of call and response chanting that originated in India many centuries ago. During Kirtan, the breath is engaged, the mind is calmed and focused on words of repetition, the heart is lifted with the music, and the need for community is met. “These ancient chants,” writes Jai “contain a transformative power and healing energy. By singing these prayers we join a stream of consciousness and devotion that has been flowing for centuries.”
