A flock of monk parakeets flew by me in Burbank. Its so crazy to see these guys fly around when there's one INSIDE my house. I can only imagine the terror these guys bring to the neighbors.

People all over the country need to understand that federal agents are not in Chicago to prevent violence – they're in Chicago to cause violence.
(from the inbox) Less than an hour later this morning, just before 10:30 at Roscoe and Harding, feds again released gas as they were driving away, unobstructed, from a relatively small number of neighbors.

A friend recently told me that they didn’t think ICE would deploy tear gas in well to do neighborhoods with a high density of white people. I understood their thinking, but disagreed. Today, they gassed Lakeview. Nothing is off limits to these people.

Hi, just a note—

The local ICE/ERO agent directing his team to fire at reporters' faces in Chicago this morning has been threatening press since we showed up at immigration court in June. His agents shot us both at close range last week, too. None of this started today!

I got to visit the CHM and had a chance to see the Emmett Till exhibit. It was a beautiful exhibit and taking it all in was emotional. It was hard to hold back tears but also harder to hold back the anger I felt. Seeing how awful this country has always been and still repeating a vicious cycle.

Have been in a funk lately but I received an email from the church my great grandmother attended! They confirmed her baptism was taken place there and, hopefully, this can lead me to finding my great-great grandmother! #AncestryHour

ice is active in chicago's southwest side this morning.

confirmed sightings in the chicago lawn and gage park neighborhoods. there looks to be at least one arrest so far.

it seems to be a quieter morning, though, overall, so far.

New: 404 Media is suing ICE. We have filed a lawsuit demanding ICE release its $2 million contract with Paragon, a company that makes powerful spyware to break into phones and read encrypted messages. This is expensive for a small outlet but this info is important

The Northwest Side Rapid Response Team posted this community alert a short while ago. It describes how a resident in Albany Park was lured by a phone call that indicated they had won a prize. Another was lured to an address to pick up scrap metal. Both were detained by ICE upon arrival.

As you cancel streaming services, here is a casual reminder that only 16% of Americans read for pleasure anymore, and your local library has hundreds or thousands of books you haven't read.

They would love to see you stop by and renew your library card.
