Amazing turnout Nov. 5 in Chicago to protest the kidnapping of daycare teacher at Rayito del Sol by ICE fascists. Diana Santillana was forcibly abducted in front of horrified children and parents. Each ICE outrage is met with greater determination and solidarity! @indivisiblechicago.bsky.social

Farewell to Suleiman al-Obeid, the 'Palestinian Pelé'. Killed by the IDF while waiting for humanitarian aid in southern Gaza.

A talent who gave hope to countless children, even in the darkest of times.

@indivisiblels.bsky.social conducted its Fourth Business Canvass to share Know Your Rights information with area businesses to protect them, their employees, and customers in the face of ramped-up ICE attacks. They were overwhelmingly supportive and appreciative, some with tears in their eyes.
