El Refugio at Stewart Detention Center retweeted
My agency (forge.coop) did the design for Zohran’s campaign.
While I wish I played a part, it was all the masterful work of my partners, Aneesh and Phil.
Having worked with these 2 for close to a decade, it’s no surprise they created what many consider (the most?) iconic political branding.
I’ve seen Aneesh go deep into the archives of typography and color theory, and Phil spend hours custom-building animations to bring a UI to life.
HYPED to see their work getting the credit it deserves.
We asked people inside SDC what conditions are like, and here is what they told us. Join us on Thursday, Dec. 12 at 4 p.m. via Zoom: bit.ly/3ZFrGPF
El Refugio will be at the Day of the Dead Festival at Oakland Cemetery Sun., Nov. 3 with an altar to honor those who died at Stewart Detention Center. Since SDC opened in 2006, 12 people have died, making SDC the deadliest immigrant detention center in the country.

What a weekend at the hospitality house! @EsAmilcar84 made soup. Emory students made visits. 27 guests dropped by the house. On Sunday, a group of guests surrounded El Refugio volunteers, prayed for them, and expressed gratitude for El Refugio.
A donor is giving us $100 for every new monthly donor, up to $2,000. Be the backbone of our work, ensuring we continue opening our hospitality house, visiting people at SDC, answering our bilingual helpline, and fighting to shut down SDC! elrefugiostewart.org/en/dona…

Unfortunately, we cannot open the house this weekend, as we do not have volunteers. There is a lot of illness going around. Everyone stay safe! If you need a place to stay while visiting a loved one at SDC this weekend, please contact Michelle at [email protected].
