No to the City of Miami partnership with ICE. Yes to Matthew 22:39 Love Your Neighbor. 287(g) is harmful and does not reflect Miami’s core values where diversity is our superpower.

Please Commissioner Ralph Rosado, vote NO! I am your constituent. @aclufl.bsky.social

This administration can’t erase women who fight for justice. Learn from surviving Filipino “Comfort Women.” who took to the streets & courts. Never giving up, never silenced, always speaking Truth 2 power. Especially to orange men riddled with fear. To the Lolas & all women warriors. Laban!

My ❤️ is full. UMiami alum & prize winning author Daisy Hernandez urged students, faculty & admin to use their skills to advocate in their field of interest: arts, med, policy. For democracy. For themselves. For each other. ❤️ community. Hope. Do your thing from where you are & resist. #kissingbug

Think about all the #goodtrouble Connie Chung did in the 1970's. She created a space in those toxic male-centered newsrooms, she did her job despite those misogynists racists. She created a path for all women, esp AA women like me by example. We can carry that torch she lit. We got this. #LFG 🙏🏽
