This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.
This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.
Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery.
Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.
Abolish ICE.
Hamdan Ballal — the co-director of No Other Land — has been kidnapped and beaten (and allegedly lynched). The fact that there is barely any coverage of this is horrifying.
When it gets to the point when they start rounding up people claiming they’re all criminals simply for their religion or ethnicity, isn’t it then a Holocaust?
Not enough people seem to catch what happened here:
Israel stole a number of *Palestinian* children’s bodies when they raided Al-Shifa hospital last week.
They then used these bodies to stage a film for private audiences depicting the bodies as *Israeli* children.
This is so disgraceful. @UTexasLaw Dean ripping down flyers that listing the names of Palestinians that have been martyred. But we won’t be silenced. #FreePalestine
