when ICE asks you questions about your neighbors, you've never met your neighbors in your life. you've never even seen them from afar. neighbors? what neighbors?
ICE is targeting Hmong families in St. Paul as they go door to door looking for people to kidnap. they’re asking “do you have any Asian neighbors”

Considering white populations have been in free fall since around the 80s, I’ve felt the image of that cop shooting that white woman in the face is such a perfect representation of whiteness.
Especially considering white folks voted en masse for these conditions.

These Madera area farm workers are hard at work tying grape vines in place. They start the days in the early morning when it's cold and foggy and spend their days going up and down ladders. This work ensures the beautiful summer time grapes we all enjoy. #WeFeedYou

They want us scared, so we'll stop fighting. As with antiracism, when the people who benefit from it start making threats against those fighting it, it means we're on the right track.

Seems pretty clear to me that I.C.E. agents have recently been instructed to ✨threaten✨ protestors or other civilians with mention of Renee Nicole Good’s murder by an I.C.E. agents.
I have clocked at least 4 examples of I.C.E. agents around Minnesota, using nearly identical language threateningly.

Just received a threat of violence from an I.C.E. agent b/c of my work with people they abducted.
If I die in police custody, they killed me; I’d never take my own life—esp in their custody.
Be sure, I did not speak to them other than to invoke my right to counsel. I did not or take illicit drugs.
