"Binational Health Week is an annual weeklong series of health-promotion and health-education activities geared toward migrants and immigrants from Mexico and Central America."
This is in Chattanooga, Hamilton County....

Is this one held the week before, or the week after the “Health Fair for White People”?
To: Tennessee Nana
While the rotten politicians keep campaigning by selling out America — buying votes from every downside group in America. And breaking our laws to do it. If you and I break laws, we go to jail — how about these bumbs??? Maybe that would help their attitude about using the American public as “useful idiots” (thank you Lenin).

Where did it say that illegal immigrants are attending? The story specified that some 1st Amendment-fostered organizations will be peacefully assembling over the issue of health. Sounds pretty normal and commendable to me. Counties and other jurisdictions often attend private assemblies to offer information about their services to whomever is there.

What a racist event. Of course of governments support racism as long as you are not white.
To: Tennessee Nana
I’ll bet there won’t be a group there offering free vasectomies or sterilizations. Such a group would be banned as racist.

Where did it say illegal aliens in the story? Oh, you said... because you hate Hispanics.
Sad.
