I was undocumented for almost twenty years, it gave me some very valuable lessons.

1. Don’t engage with racists.
2. Don’t read the comments.
3. Laughter is defiance.

Great read from @immcouncil.bsky.social!

Undocumented Immigrants are criminalized for breathing. Or at least it feels like it.

Want to work? Wham! Workforce raid. Going to the emergency room? Wham! Did you drive without a license?

Those who would be targeted by mass deportations contribute more of value to America and its culture than do the those who want to mass deport them. We need to push back hard on the idea that the latter group represent "real America," because instead they are fundamentally hostile to America itself.

“This is the only country that I have,” my dad recently told me. “But people assume, because you’re an immigrant, that you somehow don’t belong here.”

Read Melissa Cruz's @USATODAY piece "My dad has been a citizen for 30 years. I’m still worried."

My dad has been a citizen for 30 years. I’m still worried about Trump’s immigration plan. | Opinion
My father has been a U.S. citizen for decades, but Donald Trump's immigration agenda still worries our family. It should worry all Americans.
