Wanna shake up some fascist-friendly corporations?

Join the DIGITAL CART JAM!

Fill your online shopping cart at Home Depot, Amazon, & Target and then....

Stop before checkout and leave it full 'til Cyber Monday to send a message that We Ain't Buying It!

fine'ry Body Mist and MGA's Miniverse Make It Mini Multipack ($14.99 & $23.99, respectively) sit in a Target online shopping cart to protest Target caving to anti-DEI pressure. It will stay full until Cyber Monday and never checkout Corporations rely heavily on successful checkouts as a core metric of performance. Coordinated disruption to the company's KPIs tells them something is wrong and their business practices are failing.

What you don't realize unless you know Lakewood is that this Home Depot is directly across from City Hall. Just to the north is the Lakewood Sheriff Department. 5/
Map of Lakewood, CA along Clark Ave at Hardwock St. Home Depot is to the west near the bottom. A red 'X' marks where ICE kidnapped a man from the parking lot this morning. Across the street is Lakewood City Hall. North of City Hall is the Lakewood Sheriff Department, circled in yellow. The sheriffs are 1000 feet away from Home Depot, and the parking lot is even closer to them than that.

I think this is an important story to tell. Today my friend's husband was arrested due to racial profiling by ICE at Lakewood Home Depot. It turns out he had proof of being a U.S. citizen on his person but no one asked or listened to him. When he got to downtown LA for processing they found the documents. After waiting in horrible conditions all day, they told him he is now "under investigation" but would not say for what. He got one phone call. His wife has been instructed to bring her birth certificate, wedding certificate and her driver's license to the detention center in DTLA tomorrow. There is no reason she needs to do that as she is a U.S. citizen also, who was born here as well. (Just fyi -Her husband's police record is spotless - not even unpaid parking tickets.)

This morning our members visited the offices of Senators Padilla and Schiff to tell them we need them to call on Sen. Schumer to step down as Senate Minority Leader.

Lakewood Indivisible is out here fighting for democracy, and we need leaders who will fight just as hard as their constituents.

FYI, ICE raided Signal Hill Home Depot Monday and took 5 people (they let 1 go) and an unknown number from the shopping center. They raid SoCal daily, and we don't have enough people to scare them away.

We don't have enough people YET. Please join us in protecting our neighbors. We keep us safe.

If you don't know what NSPM-7, aka National Security Presidential Memorandum 7, is you have some reading to do:

www.brennancenter.org/our-work/res...
A protestor in a crowd at a No Kings 2 event holds his sign. It says "Are you NSPM-7 compliant? According to the Trump Administration you could be considered a DOMESTIC TERRORIST if you are: -critical of traditional views on morality, religion, and family -"Extreme" on migration, race or gender -anti-capitalist THEY WANT TO CRIMINALIZE DISSENT! RESIST!" A little notecard attached on top says "Google It"
