Police on horseback, accompanied by officers in riot gear, watch a large crowd of people. One says, β€œThe protesters seem to be doing some sort of joyful synchronized dance. Is it time to call in the Marines?”

We’re even firing volunteers. I was an AmeriCorps VISTA in the 90s after VISTA (which had already existed pre AmeriCorps) came under its umbrella. Make this make sense.

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.
