In one of his last acts as president, Joe Biden freed Leonard Peltier -- the longest serving Native political prisoner in U.S. history. Thank you for your activism and this came via email
This presidential act of clemency is thanks to our collective advocacy and generations of activists demanding his release, including Pope Francis, Saint Mother Teresa, Nelson Mandela, the Dalai Lama, and Coretta Scott King.
Can you find out if he is home with his family for me, I’d appreciate it, if not that’s okay.
The incredible enrichment one receives from engaging with people from different cultures is something that everyone should experience. I never knew what I was missing until my husband and I started volunteering to “help“ refugees settling in our community. Although I’m sure it is important that we were there to guide them through the very confusing requirements of paperwork and odd customs, I’ve learned so much more from them! Meeting generous, kind, people with a sincere desire to live in this country has been one of the great honors of my life.
The above provides information with links to the information in many languages
Because I work daily in a setting with many immigrants, I keep copies of the above ready, at hand, and I am always assertive about meeting agents from ICE and INS
I will check with our town counsel to see if our jurisdiction is one in the 287g program
Thanks Qasim. I also posted details of Operation Safeguard ICE plan: jails, ICE Air charter flights, where soft tent camps being built — and who is doing deportation defense in key cities, and who primed to file legal defenses. Resisting Project 2025 Substack.
Thank you, Qasim, for this important contribution.
I have begun sharing with all manner of people, each of whom will act on your information.
We can all recall and recommit to the values and democratic aspirations expressed here and, tomorrow, as we remember and show gratitude to the work of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr [ AND the many others in America who have and do believe that our Constitution is for all Americans ].
Qasim, thank you for all of this information. My granddaughter's elementary school has a huge Latino population, and I am terrified about what could happen to those kids and families. You have given me some good ideas about where to begin to proactively work for them.
I keep reading that he wants to end birthright citizenship. Would this be for babies born going forward, or would it strip current citizens of their citizenship?
I am so grateful that you write with such clarity and honesty for those in need to find - please anyone reading - share this with all who you know need to have this information at hand - or copy and paste the pieces out of it most important and print it out - hand it to those who may be in need to have in their pockets... that we continue to have any form of government that actually deals in language and action around divisiveness is beyond comprehension at this stage of humanity .....
Thank you, Cari. It's my privilege and obligation to share what I can. These issues of human rights are critical to me, and I want to ensure they are as accessible as possible for the masses to understand and act upon.
Thank you for this article, for alerting everyone to this mass anti-immigration raid and for all the empowering information to stand up for immigrants. Some very powerful arguments and stats you came up with to debunk the racist and xenophobic myths about immigrants. Called my members of Congress in protest of the raids and am coming up with a plan for how I can do long term advocacy, based on your calls to action. No one should be silent. And if he gets away with this oppression he will go to any length to oppress anyone he and his MAGA friends in office don't like. He will try anyway but we cannot let him get away with this.

tRump’s Immigrant grandfather was a criminal but he was the right color.

Thank you for reading, Rebecca, and I'm grateful it's been of value to you. Keeping the kiddos at your granddaughter's school in my thoughts.
I keep reading that he wants to end birthright citizenship. Would this be for babies born going forward, or would it strip current citizens of their citizenship?
He's made that effort and I know his co-fascist Stephen Miller is pushing that aggressively. Wouldn't surprise me to see them introduce such a bill.
Thank you for all of this information….
