It’s getting ugly quick. We’re about to have that one scene from β€œHundred Years of Solitude” where the gov’t just opens fire and massacres a group of protesters. RIP

Victor Manuel Diaz was kidnapped from Minneapolis. He was my neighbor and he died in an American concentration camp. He was not "illegal," he was a human being made in the image of the divine. May his memory be a blessing, and may the rest of us fight like hell until we stop this brutality.

The SALUTE zines (about how to report ICE) are here: drive.google.com/drive/folder...

Available in English and Spanish with versions for many regions around the country that have the relevant local hotline. Also, instructions on how to fold! (Now I know how to make zines!)

If ICE gets to decide against all evidence that your documentation is fake, just because they say so, then there is no law. For anyone, but especially for Black and brown people the Supreme Court has declared are warrantless arrest targets.
