new from @kylietcheung.bsky.social in @teenvogue.com: recently, men have impersonated plainclothes ICE agents to assault women—only possible, she argues, because state agents commit violence with impunity.

ICE body slams man's head hard into pavement—for eating crabs in public.

Meet Shakira. Ten years ago, she was living in a shelter with her three kids, working at a non-union hotel.
Now she's a member of HTC.
