After one of the worst acts of racial terror in our history, *we erased it.*
We didn't teach it.
We didn't take anyone to trial.
Police records disappeared.
So did newspaper archives.
The silence continued until 2020, when people, you could say, woke up.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.
The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

Some people seem to genuinely believe they have the right to ask everyone in the country to fund their extremely expensive career interests, without evidence of benefit, during a time of job losses, tariffs and inflation. I don't need a chat bot.

You have to keep giving money to avoid collapse and if there’s collapse you have to give more money. It’s called the free market.
