Community starts with you. How can we yearn for a village, when we are unwilling to be villagers?

This is your Jummah reminder to lead with kindness, love, and compassion. 🫂

Jummah Mubarak!

Hope. Power. Compassion. ✨
These values drive true civic engagement. The journey isn’t always linear—but giving up isn’t an option.

& the languages that still echo across Georgia.

The United States Government has SHUTDOWN.

Many federal agencies halted their operations, leaving many Americans without essential resources and Federal employees without a paycheck and mountains of uncertainty.

Keep reading to see how this affects YOU.
This is a developing story.

We are in a constant state of learning. We learn unexpected things and foster a sense of community when we are curious about each other. Let’s remember this as we make meaningful connections in this dunya, inshAllah!

ICE has secured billions of dollars for its immigration enforcement and facilities, including the notorious Folkston ICE Processing Center right here in Georgia. The center has many documented violations, including unsanitary conditions, medical neglect, and even detainee deaths.

WE place care, safety, and love over profit.

Helping your community can look like advocating for equitable immigration policy reform, printing red cards (lrc.org/redcards), creating safety plans, & building robust social networks.

ICE is overtaking our communities. Billions of dollars are being allocated to hold migrants in inhumane conditions, and we anticipate a crackdown on our communities. We must keep each other safe. Keep reading to learn more ⬇️
