SOAW Vigil at Stewart Co Dtn Cntr (11-19-13) : Dominique Diaddigo-Cash

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q72KDjYDxZIDominique is an organizing intern at SOA Watch this year. Dominique began with the organization in January 2013, after moving from Minneapolis, where he helped to facilitate the growth of an ecological movement for people of color in urban areas, protested with the American Indian Movement, and supported the actions of Occupy Homes.  He first learned about SOA Watch after the coup in Honduras ousted Manuel Zelaya in 2009, and has been following us in the news and through our own media, as well as organizing teach-ins and distributing literature ever since.  Dominique joined us at Ft. Benning for the first time in 2012, and is eager to gain greater hands-on experience in supporting our struggle.
