Just off the phone w/ @prolpo: What about building a network of solidarity between universities in every border state, echoing the demands of NO ICE and NO BORDER PATROL on campus? Like the border itself we'd form a ring around the imaginary circumference of the nation
Retrial begins in one week. We wanted to look back on a thread from last trial about root causes of migration and resistance to imperialism in Central America...see thread below!

Over the past 15 yrs, more than 100 ppl have been killed by US Border Patrol agents' excessive use of force. In the Nov 12 case, a BP agent fired across the US-Mex border. Do non-US citizens murdered by US state agents outside the US have legal redress? This will set precedent.
A report published by @amnesty today details a two-year-long attack on human rights defenders, attorneys, and journalists working along the U.S.-Mexico border, calling out a pattern of escalating enforcement in violation of domestic and international law. https://t.co/0qPS79TSle

BREAKING: RETRIAL announced in #ScottWarren case on harboring counts. Conspiracy charges dismissed. Trial to begin Nov 12. Government continues unconscionable prosecution of aid worker in midst of a humanitarian crisis at our border.

The text messages showed agents calling Jose and Kristian "toncs," a racial slur referring to the sound a flashlight makes when it hits somebody in the head. One @CBP agent's avatar was an image stating "waterboarding, baptizing the terrorists with freedom."
“What we’re starting to see more and more is that technology and technology contracts form a huge part of ICE’s budget and are also one of their critical tools for how they’re conducting enforcement on the ground,” says Jacinta Gonzalez of @ConMijente https://t.co/HIixj7sctU
From @jbwashing: "Amidst the political ruckus and reduction of people into "masses" or "floods," too often we forget the humanity behind the statistics.
Migrant Voices, a new oral testimony series, offers the clarity of one voice at a time." https://t.co/Q5OM166xe0
