The virus had killed about 38 people, most of them Black, by April 2020. But when a white judge died, local officials made sure to announce her name.

1. ICE report confirms ~400 immigrant children held in custody beyond 20-day legal limit, some over 5 months; reports of poor conditions, medical neglect, and contaminated food

Every law abiding person in power needs to take action to stop this and prosecute those involved. We all need to stand against cruelty and stand for human rights.
If this is what we know about the place, imagine what hasn’t even come out yet
They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.
