Do not wait to take action until ICE has filled the concentration camps with immigrants.
It will be too late thenβthey will be free to focus all of their forces on you.
Do not tell yourself that if you just keep your head down, they'll ignore you.

The way progressive White folks keep ignoring that most Black folks lived under authoritarianism HERE from the early 1500s to the 1970s in parts of this country & instead reach to Germany to describe our current situation is deepβ

They outright admit it! Yet the Trump admin's response to a court is basically "oops, well, no take backsies."
