A former North Lake detainee says she was repeatedly sexually assaulted in ICE detention -- and attempts to alert staff initially went unheard.

What @michellejokisch and I know about how these alleged assaults were able to occur for @michigan_public:

A @michigan_public analysis found a spike in petitions by detainees arguing they were wrongfully held by the government. And many have won. @RayesReports and I spoke about the findings. You can read the story and listen to our conversation...

Do you find recycling confusing? You're not alone. Many people say they're unsure about what they can  recycle. Use our searchable database to figure out which Michigan communities take (clean) pizza boxes, foil & more: https://t.co/Bhuht7koit

Taking a road trip in Michigan soon? Our recycling map shows how recycling systems around the state handle a variety of common items - yes, that includes (clean) pizza boxes. Check it out to find out what to do with your recyclables while home or away: https://t.co/Bhuht7kW81

@ComberWilen @IPBS_News It was so great to work with you. I hope you enjoy your travels and get some well earned rest! Looking forward to see what you do next!

2/ These media are focusing on these two infographics by the @ochaopt . The one on the left, published 6th May, the one on the right published 8th May. As you can see, total fatalities INCREASE, as opposed to decrease. What the propaganda is seaking to do is barely sophistry

[Adam Yahya Rayes @RayesReports]

@PolarBarrett I haven't seen it, but I've long assumed they picked it because the name sounded cool and fight-ey

[The Markup @themarkup]

Censorship, shadowbanning, and straight-up deletion.

What’s at stake when Instagram users speak out on issues they care about, like supporting Palestine.

Christian Geoghegan co-owns Hexenbelle Cafe in Traverse City where they serve Palestinian dishes, hang a Palestinian flag, play Arabic music, & fundraise for Gaza

Hear more on how they & other Palestinian-Americans are defining identity & home right now:

[Adam Yahya Rayes @RayesReports]

It often feels like Palestinians get to play a limited role in U.S. media: protesting, apologizing for violence they are not responsible for, or mourning death & destruction.

There's more to them than that, as @BriRiceWrites & I try to capture here: https://t.co/63X31Aeib5

[Adam Yahya Rayes @RayesReports]

“Watching what should be your home be delegitimized by the country you're supposed to be welcome in, it's a bizarre feeling. ... I feel like I'm waiting at a gate trying to get to a home I might never see.”

@Hicks_JustinM Thank you! I owe a lot to some friends who know a lot about tiktok-style vids and were willing to give some brutally honest feedback lol.

Officials say Detroit is becoming "much safer" because of police programs, citing 2023's record low homicide count.

But that number doesn't tell the whole story.
