I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

Today is World Humanist Day.

Our former honorary president Kurt Vonnegut believed in kindness. Humanism calls us to act on it.

Vote. Advocate. Show up for each other.

We are not powerless.

Thank you, to the brave and formidable Catherine Corless. We owe her so much. ❤️
By coincidence I was passing Tuam today as the hoarding went up around the Mother & Baby Home site. A discreet and respectful veil.

It’s 11 years since I took this photo of Catherine Corless at her kitchen table. I rang her today just to say hi.
