Wanted to share some playlists I made since the 2020 Uprising - good for impending marches you might be attending. They're on Spotify (I know it's problematic), but figure they might be helpful.

In this thread, we present Willem Van Spronsen’s final statement, which we published in 2019 when police killed him.
He was killed while attempting to disable the buses serving a private detention facility imprisoning immigrants.
He knew what the consequences would be.

It is evil beyond description and in a decent world it would result in immediate, massive, global action to stop them and prosecute those responsible

Trump underwater in literally every single issue. 38% approval overall. 27% approval on his spending bill. 40% approval on deportations.

Just FYI, administrative warrants (like the ones used by ICE) are not judicial warrants (used by cops, signed by a judge).
You do NOT legally have to open the door for an ICE officer with an administrative warrant *no matter what the ICE officer says.*
