"Let’s stop the performative grief and start the celebration. Let’s give ourselves a collective pat on the back for achieving exactly what we intended: nothing. We have stared change in the face and bravely stood our ground."

All staffed by the Canadian company GardaWorld. Fucking gross.
They're using the confinement box, one of the most horrific methods of CIA torture in the post-9/11 black sites, against migrants now. This is the direct result of the lack of consequences for the architects of the torture program. Either there will be criminal penalties for this or it will expand.

The national incarceration rate of Native Americans is more than 2x that of white Americans. For Native youth, the confinement rate is approximately 3x that of white youth.

This is the legacy of centuries of oppression & theft from Native people.

This is spot-on.

The UVA "deal" might be the worst/most dangerous (so far). With the help of UVA's leadership, Trump coerced a leading U.S. university to foreswear all efforts (including 100% lawful measures) to achieve diversity.

A betrayal of our values.
