I helped @grace_laria compile resources (primarily made by Black authors, content creators, and activists) that we hope can help folks formulate responses to common arguments against police abolition, looting & rioting, and prison abolition.

.@WashArchbishop Gregory has released a statement on the president's visit to the Saint John Paul II National Shrine. adw.org/wp-content/upl…

The Episcopal bishop of DC – who oversees the DC church Trump just stopped at – tells the @washingtonpost she is "outraged" and that neither she nor the rector was asked or told… “that they would be clearing with tear gas so they could use one of our churches as a prop.." 1/3

White Catholic Hoyas I’m looking at you! For 4 yrs I watched y’all nod along to homilies rooted in Catholic Social Teaching only to fail to practice what was preached. As an activist executed by the state, Christ is with the protestors fighting for racial justice in the streets.

The official number of people disappeared in Mexico to date is 37K—due to violence, extortion, impunity. Full stop. Since January, an additional 37K migrants were sent back to Mexico thru MPP. The returned & the disappeared are now overlapping populations: latimes.com/world-nation/s…

"Ms. Bueso received a letter from the United States government that told her she would face deportation if she did not leave the country within 33 days, an order described by her doctor, lawyer and mother as tantamount to a 'death sentence.'” | via @mirjordan @itscaitlinhd

Jose migrated from El Salvador at 10 years old, he has leukemia, and he’s queer. He’s trying to fix his papers through his husband, but the new public charge rule puts his greencard in limbo. losangelesblade.com/2019/08/22/to-…

A denied family-based application for an undocumented person can = the initiation of deportation proceedings. "No one should have to choose between feeding their families and jeopardizing their future in the US." - @MaketheRoadNY #StopPublicCharge

Overheard at work today: “Almost all of our family-based applications will suffer as a result of #PublicCharge.” This new rule is classist, anti-immigrant and would have devastating consequences for future citizenship and green card applications.

met a man today in ICE detention who told me he cannot go “home” because he will be killed upon return. didn’t pass his CFI, likely will be deported (to his death) within a couple of months.

@ACLU Also, quick note for y'all in the back: Maybe we can move past the premise that those in immigration proceedings have to be detained at all! Just a thought, though.

"Family separation is part and parcel of the Trump administration’s efforts to deter asylum seekers from coming to the US and its unceasing attacks on immigrant communities. Gutting Flores protections is the next step in that effort" - @ACLU #SaveFlores #AbolishICE
