I emailed the journo of this piece, but they're OOO. Anyone know how we can get connected to the schools that need help?

Those of you who continue to claim these are not real federal agents are only giving cover for these agents’ crimes. That you refuse to believe your gov is doing this & that cops are trained to do this shows you are caught up in the American exceptionalism myth.

This is almost always true these days. However, this man presumably consented to bring photographed and written about.

Really sick when I see these and it's someone I've already blocked 🤌

Fam, this is a challenging moment. We (as reporters) are trying to balance urgency of news & amplification of resistance narratives with not assisting in putting people in prison. It's tough for everyone right now with how fast videos go viral. There's a lot we are not sharing.

A thing I think it’s important for USians not in currently-occupied cities to grasp is that the normal and everyday goes on alongside the violent and unprecedented.

In Chicago right now you can be forced off teargas-soaked streets in the morning and have a peaceful evening picnic on the lake.

Please note that the things Mills is most mad about—false calls, and his officers being exposed to chemical weapons—have nothing to do with the feds attacking protesters. He's perfectly happy to have ISP do that instead so long as his guys are unbothered.

Important to see today

We are a group of journalists across newsrooms in Chicago, collecting video related to use of force, stop & frisk, and traffic stops conducted by federal agents and the National Guard.

Reporters from across newsrooms in Chicago are collaborating to collect visual evidence of federal agents detaining people & using force in Chicago.

Send videos to tinyurl.com/chicagojourn..., or get in touch via email chicagojournalists@protonmail.com.

This is a theme we keep repeating too. Until you see it for yourself, I think it’s hard to really understand how completely unnecessary and disproportionately violent the federal response has been.

How much is for fun, terror, or social media, I don’t know. A mix of the three for sure.

Unless Governor Pritzker and mayor Johnson are being detained by ICE somewhere they should be out in the street with the people.

Do removed posts show up when you request a data export from Instagram? They keep a LOT of data.

Lmaooooo

Thank you for sharing this.

Chicago -- Anyone seen the mayor or governor today? Not posts, IRL.

She managed to get a farmworker visa. Once in the U.S., she endured abuse. A Prism investigation reveals that women are routinely shut out of the H-2A program. Those who get in report doing non-agricultural labor and facing sexual violence and trafficking

I want to do a little breakdown of this investigation I published today for @prismreports.org about gender-based violence in the H-2A agricultural visa program.

Please support @thetriibe.com today. They are doing critical reporting right now threading together updates on ICE in the area:
