please share widely.

#Love #resist #abolishDHS #FightOn #OccupyICE #NoFascistUSA

It’s another beautiful day at #occupyICEPDX

#abolishICE #abolishDHS

Happy punk dance party to ICE ICE Baby!

#occupyICEPDX #abolishICE #abolishDHS

Another arrest. Zip tied wrists and feet. Carried out.

#occupyICEpdx

Less than lethals (that still injure & sometimes kill).
#occupyICEPDX

Activist walking back and forth in front of DHS riot line, playing recording of caged immigrant children crying.

#occupyICEPDX #abolishICE #abolishDHS

Blessed be anarchist antifascist organizing. Despite a DHS raid, breakfast is still being served. Pancakes and eggs.

#OccupyICEPDX

“We are the fire that will melt ICE.” Main camp still holds fast.

#OccupyICEPDX

@tedwheeler & @ChloeEudalyPDX, we were assured at yesterday’s city council meeting that PPD would not help DHS. Yet they are blocking roads to aid this raid. And are local jails receiving the arrestees?

#OccupyICEPDX

Portlanders, please call @tedwheeler and insist he keep his promise about PPD noncompliance with DHS and ICE. Blocking roads & jailing arrestees is compliance.

#OccupyICEPDX

Coffee, not cops.

#OccupyICEPDX

I’ve got the co-working space set up at Bancroft & Moody. Come down. There’s coffee.

#OccupyICEPDX #AbolishICE #abolishDHS

Announcement that this is Portland —not federal— property.

Chants, “whose streets, our streets!”

“I could be your son! I could be your daughter! You look like my mom, you look like my father!”

#OccupyICEPDX #MultnomahLand

Just called a Lyft for an immigrant family with two children who showed up to report in. The mother says they were held in cages.

#OccupyICEPDX #AbolishICE #abolishDHS

An undocumented activist is speaking. “Once you lose the fear, nothing else can happen to you.”

#chingalamigra #occupyicepdx

She speaks to her activism, and getting threatened with deportation. We are privileged here at #OccupyICEPDX. Use your privilege.

#OccupyICEPDX

“May we know Peace, while we make it.”
#occupyICEpdx

I quoted the Odyssey and the Havamal on welcoming the stranger. Together, we chanted Invoke Compassion, Manifest Justice.

#somoteitbe #OccupyICEPDX

“No hate! No fear! Immigrants are welcome here!”

#OccupyICEPDX #abolishice

Queers against ICE.

#OccupyICEPDX #AbolishICE

More middle aged white people have shown up, so I’m tapping out for substantial protein & to finish my work.

#OccupyICEPDX #AbolishICE #abolishDHS #EndFamilyDetention

Stay safe.
Stay strong.
Stay in love.
