When my family and 120,000 other Japanese American were sent to prison camps in WWII, the government only allowed propaganda photos of things like schools and baseball games to be published. A school in a prison is evidence of evil, none of these people, especially children, should be imprisoned
ICE is sending these kids to the concentration camp in Dilley, Texas, where they're preparing to have so many children that they're opening a new school there. They're actively hiring teachers now. I reported on it last month. We have to get people out of there.

It’s so interesting how we are arresting and detaining five-year-olds in God knows what conditions in concentration camps in Texas, but the big-time drug dealers and thieves keep getting away!! it’s almost like a pattern

Yes, but America was also built by people that defied those systems and won.

Our history is woven with getting things wrong and then trying to make things right.

This has been America.

And I have to believe that we have collectively decided we don't want to tolerate it anymore.
I fear my tipping point into madness is "Thus is un-American" posts in response to ICE terrorizing immigrants. I beg you to open Wikipedia (I would say a book but let's start small) and read up on The Trail of Tears, Fugitive Slave Catchers, Japanese internment, Indian Boarding schools & Jim Crow
