Queens resident Rishi Singh is not an undocumented citizen, but he says he's joining the fight for comprehensive immigration reform on behalf of his father who came to the U.S. illegally from Trinidad 14 years ago.

"My father recently passed away and he worked for barely minimum wage and struggling to pay rent and put me and my brother through school so I'm doing this for him and for my family," Singh said.

Singh is a member of a South Asian and Muslim group called Desis Rising up and Moving, or DRUM. For many in the Jackson Heights based group, immigration reform is an issue that hits close to home.

"I grew up undocumented in this country. I've been here since I was 10 years old and this is my hometown so I know the struggles of the undocumented and what we have to face," said DRUM youth organizer Shoshi Chowdhury.

Chowdhury is now a permanent U.S. resident, and on Saturday, she and other DRUM members will join what's expected to be thousands of people for the sixth annual May Day March and Rally calling for a path to citizenship for illegals and workers rights for all immigrants.

"We represent thousands of South Asians and Muslim immigrants here in the city who are undocumented. We are marching in solidarity with every other immigrant in this city -- Latinos, Asians, Africans -- to say that we need just real legalization," said DRUM Executive Director Monami Maulik.

And if these groups needed any more incentive to march, they say they got it from the new Arizona law which allows local law enforcement officers to question and arrest anyone they believe is in the country illegally.

"Nobody wants to be here in such fear and living underground," Maulik said.

The protest and rally for more immigrant rights will start in Manhattan's Union Square at noon. The crowd is then expected to march to Foley Square for another gathering.
