The so-called United States of America, as well as Canada, have always have been settler colonial states that can only exist through the subjugation and genocide of native people. Now is the time for decolonization.

🚨"The most surprising arrest [this morning], by far, though, is ... a colleague of [one of the other arrestees] at Spokane Community Against Racism and was among the leaders of the June 11 protest, but crucially, they were not arrested that day.

Many of the arrested had their phones taken." 🚨
Spokane activists were arrested by federal agents in connection to ICE protests on June 11, including Justice Forral, Erin Lang and former city council president Ben Stuckart, who were previously arrested on June 11. Organizer Jac Archer, who was not arrested June 11, was also arrested this morning.

July 13 will make 6 years since Willem Van Spronsen sacrificed his life to take action against ICE.

From the vantage point of 2025, we can see that he correctly identified ICE as representing the forefront of both totalitarianism and ethnic cleansing.

Take a moment to read his final manifesto.
On Willem Van Spronsen’s Action against the Northwest Detention Center in Tacoma
We understand why Willem Van Spronsen decided to give his life to interrupt the violence that is perpetrated against undocumented people in the US.

People in Ashland, Oregon disrupted a 4th of July parade today to bring a message against genocide and ICE repression.

"The protestors were dressed as monarch butterflies and held giant poppy flower puppets to demand an end to the genocide in Gaza and the escalating ICE kidnappings in the U.S."

Here is the vast scale of lands to be sold to private interests without consultation of tribes. These lands will be closed to tribes and the public for the foreseeable future if this happens. The scale is heartbreaking! #Landback

Solidarity with those standing against ICE, DHS, NG, and other fascist forces. Borders are fascist political tools, enforced by fascist militaristic forces, for fascist political reasons. The state, borders, and those who uphold them must be abolished to free the biosphere
