Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

He is a computer safety researcher.

And federal agents in plain clothes who refuse to identify themselves will be the ones to do it.

If you think I'm being hyperbolic, watch this clip.

Rep. Delia Ramirez, Rep. Raúl Grijalva, and I are urging the Biden administration to condemn the prosecution of indigenous Guatemalan environmental defenders who have spoken against harmful energy projects—and advocate for an investigation into the violence against these activists.

Following his assassination, I remember my father taking me by the location and discussing it briefly with me. Years later, I would meet Akua and Chairman Fred Hampton, Jr. and provide space for them to meet at my church in Chicago. They were two inspiring young adult leaders taken from us all.
