Boycott Avelo!
Avelo is a weak cog in the deportation machine and they are feeling the pressure from a growing national movement. Their ICE flights have recently been described as “a disorganized mess”. Is this an airline you would trust to keep you safe?

It’s undeniable, more and more working class people are waking up to the extreme inequalities and injustices around us.
More and more are realizing that we aren’t powerless. When we strategize, decide, and work together, we can make serious positive change.

On #IndigenousPeoplesDay, we recognize that St. Louis sits on the ancestral lands of the Chickasaw Nation, Illini Tribe, Ioway Tribe, Kickapoo Tribe, Osage Nation, Otoe-Missouria Tribe, & Quapaw Nation.
The US must reckon with its colonial past & honor Indigenous leaders shaping a more just future.

This week, the Global Sumud Flotilla tried to deliver life-saving aid to Gaza.
Instead, 461 people—including New Yorkers—have been detained by the Israeli military.
They must be freed at once. And the deliberate starvation of Palestinians must end now.
