Yesterday's presentation at the US Dept Of State with leaders from Latin America on migration and gender based violence. What an excelent group!

Interesante charla con Adriana López, gerente del programa de servicios sociales gratuitos del Tahirih Justice Center dedicado a proteger a mujeres y niños inmigrantes que son más vulnerables a la violencia en este país.
El trabajo que hacen es increíble! #IVLPgender

Children in Gaza have been exposed to deeply distressing events, witnessing horrors that no child should.

The world cannot abandon them. We need a humanitarian ceasefire. Now.

Death, displacement, trauma, fear, anxiety.

Children in Gaza are paying the highest price.

#Ceasefire is needed RIGHT NOW.

Tahirih was grateful to be part of the delegation that went to the border last week as Title 42 ended and the asylum ban began. The conditions are dire and changes is desperately needed.

[Archi Pyati @TahirihCEO]

I'm absolutely devastated and furious to see that the Iranian parliament voted in favor of the death penalty for an estimated 15K Iranian protesters.

Just like Tahirih, they were fighting for the right self-expression and to end oppression and violence.

"You can kill me as soon as you like, but you cannot stop the emancipation of women."

These were the final words of Tahirih, a revolutionary 19th-century Persian woman who was executed for unveiling in an act of political defiance.

This Juneteenth, we honor Black resistance and the power of Black joy — never forgetting that on this day in 1865, enslaved Texans were notified of their freedom, two years after the Emancipation Proclamation. 156 years later, we still fight.

"I serve domestic violence survivors as a social worker. The toxic public shaming of Amber Heard will discourage some from ever speaking up."

[Adriana López @adrilopezmtz]

"This trial may have very well convinced some who are suffering in silence that the costs of speaking up and seeking help are too great to bear."

Our co-director of client advocacy wrote an op-ed about the negative impact on survivors after the Depp-Heard trial https://t.co/OeeA5ZVS0E

Before the President took office, we compiled a list of 10 urgent actions needed to support immigrant survivors of gender-based violence. 1 year later, we urge the administration to follow through on their promise to restore #asylum & #WelcomeWithDignity.

[Ida Bae Wells @nhannahjones]

Journalists, stop calling the failure to pass the voting rights bill a “major setback” for Democrats. It is a major setback for DEMOCRACY. The right to vote is not a partisan issue. Stop framing it as such and legitimizing anti-voter efforts.

[Tahirih Justice Center @tahirihjustice]

When the administration took office we called for an end to expedited removal—fast-tracked deportation –within the U.S. and at the border. These barriers to protection slams the door on survivors of violence. It is time the admin restores asylum and treats asylum seekers humanely

[Tahirih Justice Center @tahirihjustice]

Today marks the 70th Anniversary of the #RefugeeConvention and there are millions around the world in need of protection. The administration must end #Title42 and restore the full and legal rights of people seeking asylum along the southern border. #WelcomeWithDignity

[National Immigration Law Center @NILC]

⛑ About 74% of undocumented people in the U.S. are essential workers—serving in healthcare, ag, food services, construction & domestic work.

"They've kept Americans alive while working for subpar wages, often without adequate protective equipment."
