Let’s be clear: this (inspiring) amputee football tournament is a direct consequence of Israeli athleticide—the deliberate maiming of Palestinian athletes in an attempt to render them incapable of performing athletic national identity.
This tournament is thus a profound act of refusal.

ICE has been at war with Charlotte's sheriff ever since he won in 2018.

“When the 8 African American sheriffs took over the largest counties in North Carolina, it became a threat to the good ol’ boy system,” says the sheriff of Charlotte. These new sheriffs broke ties with ICE.
But GOP lawmakers cracked down this week, overbidding the governor’s veto to adopt this law:

A Charlotte man was stopped twice by ICE. The first group checked his ID and let him go. Minutes later, another set of agents rolled up, smashed his window, dragged him out, and assaulted him
He was a U.S. citizen…
