This is a very thorough article on the Boston MFA layoffs of curators and other staff working with diverse collections and doing outreach to diverse communities, and points out, quite rightly, that the targets don’t seem random.

When they defeat ICE, Minnesota will have 34,000 trained volunteers to observe the police
More than 34,000 Minnesotans signed up to be trained as ICED observers with various activist groups in recent weeks, many of them since Jan. 7, when a federal agent shot and killed Renée Good.
Thousands of new ICE watchers hit the streets after two killings
Minnesotans outraged by the killings of Renée Good and Alex Pretti have signed up in large numbers to monitor and protest ICE with other activists.

This is a GREAT time to primary your “centrist” rep from the left in blue districts.
You know who really ought to pay attention the result in TX Sen 9? Democratic leadership in Congress.

Abolish ICE and fire all agents is the moderate position.
I just got tear gassed along with thousands of union members, many of whom had their families with them. Federal agents at the ICE facility tear gassed children. We must abolish ICE, DHS, and we must have prosecutions. I expect to see enforcement of our city code prohibiting the use of tear gas.

I don't believe most of the electeds can be swayed morally; they just need to be overwhelmed with calls that make it clear they will be destroyed politically if they continue abusing children.
But I believe the staffers can be troubled. I believe it's worth talking to them about their souls.

Federal judge has ordered the release of Liam Ramos (the bunny hat boy) and his father. A brief and rather remarkable order. Clearly written to be shared widely, so please do. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Reminded of the time that a BBC World Service presenter asked their guest how long there had been a Latino presence in Los Angeles and I yelled at my car stereo, “The name of the city is **LOS ANGELES**!”
I may have a stroke.
Someone said protests don’t belong in church and it took every ounce of self-censure within me not to say “Deborah you are literally a Protestant.”
A PROTESTant.
I assume they think Luther was nailing Bed, Bath, & Beyond coupons to the door.

This was happening in Seattle at the same time hundreds of cyclists were biking for Pretti in another part of town, after almost a thousand biked in solidarity last night.
There’s many different protests happening even within a single city it’s getting hard to keep track of them. That’s very good.

🧵The Whipple Building in south Minneapolis is a torture facility.
If this occupation is ever over and if we are restored to our rights, the state of Minnesota must reclaim the land, raze that building, and erect a monument and museum to memorialize this war against Minnesota and its people. 1/4
