“It's hypocrisy to call yourself a Christian and chase away a refugee or someone seeking help, someone who is hungry or thirsty, toss out someone who is in need of my help... If I say I am Christian, but do these things, I'm a hypocrite.”

With the Trump administration’s promised mass deportation agenda underway, it is more important than ever to know your rights when engaging with ICE.

I teamed up with ACLU to break down exactly what you should know + remind others of as well.

“I will no longer be complicit in genocide.”

One year ago today, Aaron Bushnell self-immolated outside of the Israeli embassy in Washington, D.C.

May we continue to remember his sacrifice and fight for an end to the genocide and a free Palestine. From the river to the sea.
