If you own an IRA or 401k with a REIT or real estate component, chances are you’re profiting from human misery in the form of unnecessary, abusive, and all-too-often deadly warehousing of men, women, and children. Pensions too. #freeourfuture #EndDetention marketwatch.com/story/opponent…

So beautiful seeing so many in the streets this wknd to #keepfamiliestogether & #FreeOurFuture - last week I wrote about why these fights are directly linked to the #AbolishPolice/#AbolishPrisons fight blackyouthproject.com/if-family-sepa…
I know it is hard sometimes as Black organizers to watch communities we have attempted to engage, only to be ignored, show up in such large numbers when Black ppl aren’t the specific center of the action.
Now is a good time post massive action to make these connections loudly & clearly. To say it out loud. To say it often. To ask our comrades to say it too.

Parents & children are not just being separated at the border. They are being separated in every state by @ICEgov - an immoral force ripping apart families everywhere. It’s time to #AbolishICE so we can #FreeOurFuture and #EndFamilySeparation.
U.S. Citizens - Call Congress and ask them use their oversight authority to #EndFamilySeparation. We must ensure the rights of children and parents are respected, and our legal system is allowed to work. Call- (202)224-3121 to share this important message. #ReuniteFamiliesNow
@DHSGov - the @UN has recommended guidelines for human rights at international borders bit.ly/2typSbW . The actions the DHS is taking do not comply with these guidelines. Stop the human rights abuses! #ReuniteFamiliesNow #EndFamilyDetention @womensmarch @UnitedWeDream

Release: Because for-profit or military imprisonment is unnecessary and illegal
Represent: Because represented children and families have a 96% court appearance rate and are 400% more likely to win their claims for relief
Reunify: Because we can do it faster than the government
@RAICESTEXAS @MigrantFreedom @TXCivilRights @ACLU @ProPublica @ThinkLawLab @abogadatejana @AlOtroLado_Org @aldea_pjc @immcouncil Are ready, willing, and able to put these families back together much more efficiently than the government ever could.

Thread: KC immigration attorney Andrea Martinez brings her 3 year-old client in for deportation at 3am. ICE invites her into their lobby. Then, when she tries to come in, shoves her to the ground and breaks her foot. amp.thedailybeast.com/immigration-at… (Video)
Andrea attempts to enter, gets grabbed, then shoved to the ground. All without any oral warning.
It’s 3 am, but several dozen community members are there to make sure this kid knows he’s not alone.

The @GOP won’t stop this madness. They made their deal and doubled down a dozen times: access Hollywood, Muslim ban, McCain insults, russia, that weird Space Force thing?? That party has abdicated. So we do the job they are unwilling to. We lead. We defend the constitution...
We hold power accountable. And we replace the GOP with workers willing to do the job. Probably immigrants. In the meantime, life for those selling out america must become very uncomfortable
I want a White House reporter during the next briefing to use their question time to play audio of the screaming children kidnapped from their parents

Trump is thinking about constructing a prison camp to hold 5000 children separated from their parents under Trump’s orders.

Who can we call to stop this inhumane President* from committing this immoral act?

“Cruelty is both the means and the end. It’s the thread that runs through ICE’s strategy of instilling terror in immigrant communities, Department of Homeland Security’s restrictive approach to refugees and asylum-seekers, the White House’s decision to…”

“Cruelty is [Trump’s reason behind] the White House’s decision to rescind temporary protected status for hundreds of thousands of settled immigrants, Sessions’s decision to reopen 350,000 cases for potential deportation, and much more.” #AbolishICE

This #MothersDay we remember OFFICIAL GOP POLICY of Jeff Sessions, John Kelly, and Trump is TO SPLIT UP FAMILIES:

OFFICIAL POLICY HAS LOST OVER 1500 CHILDREN.
You are either against separating children from their parents, or you are for it.

Lethal Neglect begins with enforcing cruel laws and cruel executive orders aggressively.
The Trump administration STILL plans on putting migrant children in warehouses on military bases after separating them from their families.

Donald Trump and GOP re-election slogan: Aggressive Cruelty. #MACA
