The unlawful abduction of Tae Heung “Will” Kim is over. Despite being a green card holder who has lived in the US since he was 5, Kim was trapped by federal agents at an airport this July and terrorized for days with no bed, sunlight, or access to a lawyer. He then spent months in ICE custody. 🧵⬇️

Use of anti-South Asian slurs spiked in May-June 2025, with 44,535 slurs seen in online extremist spaces in June alone. Recent data suggests this trend will continue
