The Black Immigrant Collective amplifies and makes visible the voices of Black immigrants.

[Gina Vega 🥥 @ginajk22]

It’s time to expand the scope of normal on this. It’s a nonpartisan issue. It’s not controversial anymore. The time is now. Rep. @_RyanWinkler #Freedom2Drive

[Jacob KP @jkloljckp]

Isabela of ⁦@AAOP_MN⁩: “Having a driver’s license is not just about dignity, it is about health and safety.” #Freedom2Drive #mnleg

[ISAIAH @ISAIAHMN]

"Black people are 210% more likely to be pulled over by the police. It is a tremendous risk to drive while Black already." To add the anxiety of being undocumented is untenable. Abena of the Black Immigrant Collective @BlkImmigrant #freedom2drive #MNLeg

[SEIU Minnesota @seiumn]

After over an hour of powerful testimony from Minnesotans from across our state (with 100% of testifiers in support of the bill), HF1500 passed out of the #mnleg House Transportation Committee tonight! #Freedom2Drive #GreaterThanFear #mnvalues

Undocumented Black immigrants do not come to spaces like this because we don’t feel safe. Not having a license puts us at bigger risk for criminalization, detention and deportation. #Freedom2Drive

[BIC @BlkImmigrant]

The Black Immigrant Collective is at the Capitol for Driver’s Licenses for all #freedom2Drive

[BIC @BlkImmigrant]

Black immigrants exist at the intersection of immigration and Blackness. We are hyper surveilled and profiled. DLs offer us some level of protection #Freedom2Drive

[Nat’l TPS Alliance @TPS_Alliance]

#TPS & #DED holders took the mic at the State Capitol in #Minnesota to self-advocate for their right to remain in their homes with their families. Thank you, @COPALMN! #TPSJourney4Justice @BAJItweet #ElSalvador #Honduras #Liberia #TPSjustice #SaveTPS

[UndocuBlack Network @UndocuBlack]

Thank you @SenatorCardin & @ChrisVanHollen for your leadership in defending hardworking TPS families who contribute to our communities and economy. SECURE Act Now! #SaveTPS #DreamActNow

[National Immigration Law Center @NILC]

BREAKING: Victory for our plaintiffs! A federal court has issued a second order to #ProtectDreamers nationwide. Two federal courts have now determined that @realDonaldTrump's termination of DACA was unlawful.

.@amyklobuchar is there a reason why you won't meet directly with us on immigration policy? cc @emiliavalos @MustafaJumale @nekessa

[UndocuBlack Network @UndocuBlack]

“No matter where you’re from or where you come from “ ? 🧐 interesting your year long brutality towards immigrant communities across the country would prove otherwise. #SOTU #DreamActNow #SaveTPS

Ending family based migration will keep immigrant families apart. RT if you agree Congress should protect families instead of harming them! #NoFamilyBan #StateofOurUnion #SOTU2018 Video Credit: @UndocuBLack

Hugs. Been watching as libs make jokes at our expense. Sad that our humanity is so invisible #nofamilyban #fuckborders https://t.co/zBGLJn4tGI

[Dave Zirin @EdgeofSports]

Two million people march. Dems cave. If 20 million had marched, would it have made a difference? 200 million? They take the people for granted and then blame them for an absence of enthusiasm come election time. It's an abusive cycle.

Breathe. Drink water. Take care of each other. The battle shall continue! #onward https://t.co/xow6WYmnqg

[Justino Mora @JustinoMora1]

Dear organizer & fellow undocumented friends: it's okay if u don't go to an action. If you feel exhausted, take a break. Go home, chill with your friends and/or family, watch your favorite show, drink a glass of wine- destress & re-energize! Love y'all, stay strong! #DreamActNow

[BIC @BlkImmigrant]

thank you! our humanity is on the chopping block, over and over again. https://t.co/okAfz6qmyH

[Vice President Kamala Harris Archived @VP46Archive]

The Majority Leader’s comments fell far short of the ironclad guarantee I needed to support a stopgap spending bill. I refuse to put the lives of nearly 700,000 young people in the hands of someone who has repeatedly gone back on his word.

This is a game and they are using our children as political pawns #NoMas! https://t.co/NMP2IiGqOw
