Two things: 1) We can build coalitions against this very dangerous and awful time and come out in the end with a stronger democracy. 2) When anyone begins to understand what needs to change in even the smallest ways, we must send only grace and help their way.

This is what you voted forโ‰๏ธ

Detainees treated like violent criminals. Moved from cage to cage at 3 a.m. and sleep-deprived. Only 3 minutes to eat. Bathrooms three times a week. No towel to dry off after a shower and growing fungus on their bodies.

Listen to this once. Then listen to it again.

UPDATE (full disclosure): I saw the announcement of this labor action on line, but then it disappeared from view everywhere. I am guessing that UFW didnโ€™t have full agreement from other groups on the action? So, not sure if it is happening or not.

Farm workers have announced a series of strikes, dates to be announced just prior. Please support them. This is a powerful, appropriate response to the immoral and illegal racial profiling of ICE detentions.
