Law enforcement is violently targeting press at protests around Los Angeles, from easily recognizable "mainstream" outlets to freelancers and independents. ALL press have explicit legal protections in California. #JournalismIsNotACrime.

If you’re wondering what you can do to help the people of LA…

Start protesting.

Protest everywhere.

Spread this administration’s resources thin.

Do not allow them to focus on this one place.

Distract them.

Diffuse them.

Deny them the narrative that it’s just LA.

Community journalism is the backbone of our towns. They deserve credit for reporting the news of the day, not criticism.
While you highlight it, please note is the product of local journalism, which has been carrying a lot of the burden in an environment where national outlets simply can't cover everything everywhere all at once. Support your local journalists!
Please highlight this story.

ICE stormed into the wrong house, trashed the place, and made women/girls stand outside in the rain in their underwear. ICE also stole phones, laptops, and cash savings from the family, who moved to OKC two weeks ago.

This is so frightening. We have people in our government that not only have no experience, but don’t seem to care about doing a good job in keeping our nation secure.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the first Jewish woman & second woman to serve on the Supreme Court, was a tireless advocate for gender equality and civil rights. Before her appointment, she argued several landmark cases before the Supreme Court, advancing women's rights.

The Associated Press is very important to small, rural newspapers. As a community journalist, I am keenly aware how important. Rural papers pay a subscription price to include AP stories that include stories from the statehouse to Washington, D.C. Most residents in rural America depend on AP.
📌URGENT: The Associated Press is one of the foremost news operations in the world. Without it, most media entities could not survive.

📌Well, the AP has now been barred from the White House.
I'd suggest very strongly that any media that gets its news from AP takes a damn stand here in solidarity.
