When informing your community, remember "S.A.L.U.T.E."
We saw a lot of "what to do if you see ICE" posts, primarily stating "yelling LA MIGRA" as an option, so we thought it was helpful to share a couple of things you can do in the case of you encountering ICE FREE KNOW YOUR RIGHTS AND OTHER RESOURCES HERE: drive.google.com/drive/mobil…

The Democrats won 2020 off the back of the Floyd movement then betrayed it in order to keep the status quo. In Democrat controlled states and cities across the country they stoked fears of a crime wave and added more funds to policing. Cop cities. They fueled this right swing

This woman called NYPD and got told they don’t respond to these types of accidents. Went to the precinct with video and got told to leave bc they don’t file reports for this. Then went back a 3rd time after calling a lawyer and finally got a report. Why does NYPD exist?

It's a great time to remind everyone how the USA treats Indigenous people domestically, as there's an ongoing genocide of Indigenous people internationally with US backing.

This is it. We only have ONE DAY to stop the state of Texas from executing #RobertRoberson, an innocent man.⁠ Urge Gov. Abbott to grant Robert clemency NOW at 361-264-9653 or saveroberson.org. Time is running out.

We have less than 3 days to stop Texas from executing #RobertRoberson for a crime that never occurred. Though his office is closed today, you can contact @GovAbbott at 361-264-9653 or saveroberson.org by leaving a voicemail, emailing and/or tweeting at him.

Chlorine gas was one of the main chemical agents used in World War 1. All the money in the world for policing, for war, but not to keep our air clean and safe.
In Conyers, an Atlanta suburb, a BioLab chemical plant burns because of 40 years of de-regulation. In City of Atlanta, noxious chlorine fumes blanket the streets, irritating the throat, nose, eyes. West NC is underwater. Beirut under rubble. Nobody is coming to save us.
