TRIGGER WARNING: POLICE MURDER

Seattle Police just shot a man who appeared to be running away. This is absolutely horrifying.

.@thomsonreuters is a software & media company worth US$8 billion. They built its brand as The Answers Company, stating that “Trust is at the heart of all we do.”

Yet few people are aware that Thomson Reuters currently holds contracts to the value of US$60 million w/ICE.

GEO guards are not wearing masks. 943 positive cases in ICE detention today. #FreeThemAll

BREAKING! ICE officers at #NWDC staging photos of people apart from each other after 1 person was taken to medical, waiting for #Covid19 test results. Pics are to portray the idea social distancing is happening. The entire pod is quarantined.People asked for tests, #ICE said no.

Check out this immigrant rights zine my friends at @PugetAdv and I made! https://t.co/3r4T7WxvyV

[Mijente 🐜🐜🐜 @ConMijente]

For years @thomsonreuters built a reputation as the "trusted" news agency.

However, the company is increasingly dependent on their contracts with ICE, who use their software to track immigrants.

This @bcgeu interview w/@MorganSimon1 breaks it down.

"There are enormous risks associated with doing business with ICE, and those risks are currently being ignored. Thomson Reuters needs to address the very serious human rights concerns with these contracts."

"While Thomson Reuters has built a brand as a trusted news source, few people realize that the news operation is largely financed by the company's role as a data broker for agencies like ICE" - Jacinta Gonzalez, a senior campaign director at Mijente

[Mijente 🐜🐜🐜 @ConMijente]

An investigation by @nytimes magazine last year revealed how ICE agents used Thomson Reuters products to “disappear” people in one Washington state community over several months.

This story is a must read if you care about how ICE is using data: https://t.co/jLhzpxuDin

[Mijente 🐜🐜🐜 @ConMijente]

Reuters reporters have worked to expose ICE’s human rights abuses, yet the parent company supplies ICE w/data to track & deport undocumented immigrants. ICE relies on data & tech provided by Thomson Reuters products such as CLEAR to track & arrest immigrants on a massive scale.

[Mijente 🐜🐜🐜 @ConMijente]

This is particularly important this wk as 34,000 people are still locked up as the coronavirus spreads rapidly in immigrant detention center.

The proposal urges the company to complete a human rights risk report investigating the company’s role in ICE’s human rights abuses.

[Mijente 🐜🐜🐜 @ConMijente]

IMPORTANT NEWS: Today @bcgeu, a major Canadian labour union, published a shareholder proposal with questions about @thomsonreuters' human rights record, in light for the $60m in contracts the company has with ICE.

As @awscloud profits from ICE contracts, white collar tech workers speak out about how Amazon is treating warehouse workers.

Hope to see more white collar tech workers use their privilege & speak out in solidarity with those directly impacted by Amazon's greed.

#TechSolidarity

[Mijente 🐜🐜🐜 @ConMijente]

Companies like @thomsonreuters, @PalantirTech & @awscloud help ICE use all this data to conduct surveillance on immigrants, and ultimately detain and deport as many people as they possibly can.

Hear from the people detained inside about the true condition of NWDC during covid19: “They took four of us because we were the one who talked to a GEO”person asking that they give us more soap . . . to separate us, in half, to reduce the risk. . ." #FreeThemAll #ShutdownNWDC
