Their parents live in the US. Their grandmother was entrusted with bringing them here, and CBP separated them. There is no reason for children who have parents in the US to be sitting in a holding cell rather than released to their parents pending their asylum hearings.
it’s hard to know where we can start helping. but that's the important thing. just starting. big or small. speak up. become a part of the conversation. protest. volunteer with local orgs. help folks settle in when they do make it across the border.
Support our Central American brothers & sisters & extend a hand like the one our families/ourselves received (or wish we had) when we came to the US.

1 in 10 immigrants are small business owners (https://t.co/EhJRcSJitI). Chances are, your beloved restaurant, & local gas station & dry cleaner is run by ppl who are the trailblazers for their families. #SmallBusinessSaturday also means supporting immigrant livelihoods & families
25 million refugees are generously hosted by countries around the world.
These are the countries that have stepped up for those who have lost everything.
El Comedor is an amazing aid for asylum seekers. Think about eating a hot meal—maybe the first in a very long time—after walking 100s of miles to escape violence. #support
One of the main projects we’ve been supporting is El Comedor, a radical refugee/migrant run and oriented kitchen in Tijuana. El Comedor has served vital hot meals daily for months now to those headed north fleeing violence. https://t.co/coIJ5XcEL6
Now that a new episode of @ThisAmerLife is airing, I want to make one more plug for The Out Crowd https://t.co/I32J05jcaZ - by the great @nadiareiman@emilytgreen & @latimes - as one asylum officer put it: “It’s happening.” Still. Please listen & read.
