Sometimes anti-fascism looks like having tamales for lunch.

Screenshot of news headline from Chicago: "Chicago Cyclists Are Buying Out Tamale Carts To Keep Vendors Home And Safe From ICE"
Commentary from Block Club Chicago: "Cycling x Solidarity's latest mutual aid effort takes cyclists on group rides through Pilsen and other neighborhoods to buy out tamale vendors so they can stay home as ICE swarm the city. They pass out to food to people in need."

This whole thing is incredible, but look how his hand is shaking when he points at the guys who are being hassled. He's scared, he's angry, he's pounding with adrenaline, but he's maintaining control of himself and not backing down. He's taking a stand, whatever the cost.

I don’t think any of this would be going better if the people carrying out the mass deportation policy were better educated and more fit. I do think things would be much better if we didn’t keep treating this stuff as a somewhat legitimate exercise of power.

A mom in Houston reported her 15-year-old son with autism missing. She spent 6 days terrified, searching for him. The whole time, Houston police knew exactly where he was since they helped ICE place him in a refugee facility.

This is beyond cruel.

In prison, Israeli guards told him again and again they had killed his entire family as psychological torture meant to break him. When he walked up the stairs of his home today, his wife rushed into his arms, with his children and parents beside her - alive, waiting, delirious with joy and relief.

The entire incident is infuriating and terrifying. She’s a Latina woman who was working a service job. On her way home late at night, with her headphones in, she was detained for an hour by masked federal agents who wouldn’t give her their names.

Maria Greeley, 44, had just finished working a double shift at the Beach Bar on Ohio Street
earlier this month when she said she was surrounded by three federal agents who grabbed her, forced her hands behind her back and zip tied her.
Headphones in, Greeley had been focused on getting home to her two dogs for a walk.
Instead, she said she was detained by masked agents who did not answer when she asked for names. They questioned her for an hour, she said.

Today they weaned Zephyr off of his iv and medications, and this afternoon he was able to eat some food and keep it down! Em was able to pick him up at 7 and take him home.

The total bill is still going to be somewhere over $9K. So, we appreciate all continued sharing and donations! 💚

UPDATE: Zephyr came through his surgery all right! We are waiting for news on the biopsy they did, and they have to get him to eat some solid food before they will release him.
Will update again as soon as we know more.

Thank you, everyone, for every dollar and share so far! 💚

Was just at a neighborhood school at dismissal. Hundreds of people with whistles surrounding the school and stationed down every block making sure ICE doesn’t snatch anyone. The same is happening at all the schools around here. I love my neighborhood and I love Chicago.

In Gaza, another humanitarian crisis has emerged: the soaring displacement expenses — or, as many people in Gaza bitterly describe it, “The fees you pay to become homeless in the south.” Tents cost $1,000 and securing a patch of land to pitch it on can be almost as costly.

Israel’s “Safe Zones” in Gaza Offer No Safety. Many Can’t Afford to Flee Anyway.

Displacement costs, which many call “the fees you pay to become homeless in the south,” have reached nearly $5,000.
