I don’t know who needs to hear Jesse Jackson leading the kids on Sesame Street in this beautiful call-and-response reminding them that every child is somebody, but here it is

In PA, which John represents, the EDPa has had to reject *NINETY* attempts to imprison people β€œwithout cause, without notice, and in clear violation of the Immigration and Nationality Act.” The cases keep coming because of Trump’s defiance.

Also I can’t think of a good reason to publicly insult an intern candidate like this… probably doesn’t help with recruiting!

It has taken Homer Simpson a very long time to realize that Philadelphia is his kind of town From the Betsy Ross House to Gritty, the 800th episode of 'The Simpsons' is full of local references. Thanks to writer Christine Nangle who grew up in the city.

On Nov. 16, a mental health counselor recorded in Kamilla’s medical records that her mother reported the girl had lost her appetite after being β€œserved food that contained worms.”

A week later, the couple said, children were told to gather in the gym for what they believed would be a Thanksgiving celebration. Excitement spread as families saw tables set with turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, they said. The children waited expectantly. But when a parent asked when the celebration would begin, Oksana said, staff told them the holiday meal was for employees, not detainees.

The children, she said, watched despondently as the feast was packed away.

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast.

The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me.

But the food wasn’t for detainees β€” it was for the staff.

A sassy white dog sits with her front legs crossed in a brown wingback chair

my dog does not like closed doors; she wants to hang out wherever there is an available human and assumes she is missing out on treats or something if the door is shut. Dog FOMO I guess?

Clairton sees hope but a history of disappointment six months after explosion Six months after the coke works explosion in Clairton, residents weigh hope and harm as Nippon Steel takes over U.S. Steel and a new mayor promises change.

Six months ago today, the world's eyes turned to Clairton when a blast killed two U.S. Steel workers and injured 11. Smoke cleared, media attention waned. But @publicsource.org and @apnews.com stayed with Clairton residents. Here's what they see ahead: www.publicsource.org/clairton-pa-...

These are the high schoolers taking a stand against ICE: β€˜You can’t let despair take over’ Thousands of students across the US have been walking out of their schools to protest ICE in their communities

for my latest @us.theguardian.com talked to teens leading and joining anti-ICE walkouts from TX to MD to WI.

one NYC teen: "I feel scared [of ICE] every day... But I’m not going to let that stop me, because bravery is just the positive way to say you’re scared, and I’d rather be brave than scared."

Bad Bunny’s performance began in the plantation, featured broken electric poles, and ended by centering a hemispheric understanding of β€œAmΓ©rica”—among many other thingsβ€”and some Anglo journalists are like β€œhis performance wasn’t political.”

This is why we need to be telling our stories.
