Spotify is crashing HARD because of the boycott. Their stock dropped 11% in value over the last month. Let’s keep this going!
Tell everyone you know to boycott Spotify. There are plenty of alternatives that don’t run ICE advertisements and screw over artists.

Early this morning, our city still plunged into darkness, I set off to walk the Brooklyn Bridge.
As the sun came up, we were joined by canvassers, labor leaders, elected officials, and working people — a movement to bring a new day to our city.
Tomorrow, we win it together.

It’s hard to convey just how much Chicagoans are mobilizing against ICE. Don’t want to downplay the harm, or make it seem like a fair fight. But in neighborhoods across this city, ICE is getting chased by people blowing whistles and shouting. People are running TOWARD ICE to protect their neighbors.

More and more people rising up every day.
About 200 people stood in an intersection outside the Coast Guard base in Alameda, California, where federal agents were said to be arriving to prepare for an ICE operation. Protesters held signs that said “No ICE or Troops in the Bay” and “No Hate No Fear, Immigrants are Welcome Here.”

In a stunning double standard, Trump wants to ease the path for white, far-right immigrants to the U.S. while cracking down on Black and Brown immigrants.
"That appeared to be a reference to the European far-right political party Alternative for Germany, whose leaders have trivialized the Holocaust, revived Nazi slogans and denigrated foreigners."
