We are 24 hours into Hanukkah, celebrating flames that burned brighter and hotter than anyone could have imagined.
Tonight we take to the streets in 4 cities, to shine light and heat on ICE and their enablers. Doing our part, with your help, to melt ICE.
Watch this thread.
It's important to know and remember that these kinds of crimes are happening in the present- day USA.
"An Iowa woman was charged with attempted murder after running over a 14-year-old girl, saying she did so because the teenager "'was a Mexican.'"

When it comes to addressing immigrants' rights, @RAICESTEXAS's @ErikaAndiola says a new president would need to set "a new direction." "We need executive action, and we need the migrant justice platform to be enacted as soon as possible."
