Absolutely brilliant keynote from Gabrielle Nieuwoudt at #F2L24 - unlearning as joy and necessary to increase freedom! Yes!

Kamala is the top cop is the genocidaire is the border czar (told Guatemalans at immigration press conference: "Do not come.") Why are we still doing this after deporter-in-chief and war hawk Obama?!? it's been 20 years of "centrism does not defeat fascism;" move like we mean it.

fascist violence is the logical endpoint of a state-sponsored hostile environment for migrants. it won’t be solved by facial rec or claims that “they’re asylum seekers not illegal migrants”. all racialised people are targets and politicians from across the spectrum are complicit.

We know that many migrants will be taking part in the ongoing resistance to the attacks by the Far Right. Here is our useful guide compiled w/Black Protest Legal Support UK so that you know your rights. Don’t forget our free helpline(08001601004) for immigration advice. Share +Bookmark

"Tough on the border" is the script for both parties. Democrats since Clinton, Obama and Biden have all hired more border cops, expanded detention & deportation, criminalized migration, militarized border, and outsourced and globalized border enforcement. Kamala is a cop.

Dr. King called out racism, economic exploitation, and militarism as the 'three evils of society.' This MLK Day, miss me with the sanitized quotes and honor his real legacy: dismantling the systems that oppress and building the beloved community he envisioned.

“We need leaders not in love with money but in love with justice. Not in love with publicity but in love with humanity. Leaders who can subject their particular egos to the pressing urgencies of the great cause of freedom.” -Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr We need this now!
