I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

We show up even when we’re frazzled, frustrated, scared, overwhelmed.
We keep resisting in all the ways we can because it works.
We keep linking arms with others.
We all have a part to play.
What’s yours?

We definitely won’t.

I was just sitting here contemplating just how complex the immigration “enforcement” con really is. I have always believed in following the money, but DAMN it is such a knotted cord of evil. And that’s just one of the fights we have on our hands.
If deporting CRIMINAL undocumented folks is supposed to be the goal as Republicans keep saying (which clearly is a lie)

Why are our tax dollars going to concentration camps keeping people HERE for months/yrs in horrible conditions? 🤬

Answer:
Private Prisons w/GOP investors are getting MILLIONS!

I needed this today. Sosososososo much. Thank you, Pete.
Amid these dark moments, something important is beginning to shift.

It's clearly the result of healthy political pressure - which we must sustain, and build.

But…respectfully….what are you actually DOING to get them? There seems to be no accountability here.

Call your reps…even if you know they don’t care. The first four years of 💩 hole prez trained us for this. At least their phones have to do some work.

The leading GOP candidate for Governor of Minnesota just dropped out in protest of ICE and national Republicans. A massive watershed moment.

Very appropriate 61 years later. It brings to mind, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it". G. Santayana.
This March 1965 Herblock cartoon about police violence against civil rights activists has added relevance today.

IMHO this sits better than just abolishing iCE. Prosecute the perpetrators to the fullest extent of the law.

It’s true.
I have some uncomfortable news.
There are only two sides:
Those who accept public executions of American citizens without charges or due process — and those who don’t.
