I spent my childhood inside of American concentration camps. I know one when I see one. And that is what ICE is building.

They raided the jailed children to steal their letters.
The problem, in federal officials' minds, wasn't confining children in prison-camp conditions; it was that the children could tell the public about it.

Tell your congressmember to support legislation to cap H2A visas. The runaway growth of the current H2A program has been a disaster for US farm workers' wages & jobs. Local workers told us about being illegally fired to make way for H-2A workers. act.seiu.org/a/h2avisacap... #WeFeedYou

History teaches us that the greatest harms often begin with the quiet acceptance of the unacceptable. I have seen where that road leads, and I will not walk it again without resistance.

If you’ve opened your phone lately and thought “I can’t do this anymore," you’re not alone.
Most of the people we work with aren’t lacking in motivation to create change. They’re carrying too many issues at once, trying to fix it all, and that turns into overwhelm, freeze and guilt.

If you are wondering what words the all-male Congress found so "blasphemous" that they felt compelled to literally scrape them off the monument, they were: ''Woman, first denied a soul, then called mindless, now arisen, declared herself an entity to be reckoned.''
On this day in 1921, Congress reluctantly accepted a sculpture memorializing women’s 19th A victory. Congress relegated the memorial to the Capitol’s crypt & painted over the feminist inscription. The statue stayed entombed in the crypt for 76 years. The inscription is still not restored. #WeTheMen

Yep.
The SAVE Act is the latest attempt to silence us. Politicians who can’t win fairly are making it harder for Black voters, women, and working families to vote.
This isn’t about integrity. It’s voter suppression. New rules, same Jim Crow playbook.
