🚨 NEWS 🚨
We're calling on all tech firms that work w/ICE to *immediately* stop doing so in light of ICE's horrific deportation raids during coronavirus.
The agency's latest move still gives agents discretion to do raids. This is unacceptable.

Students at Carnegie Mellon are fundraising for an anti-Palantir scholarship after the company advertised its own scholarships to students on campus.
The school's been extremely active in #NoTechforICE. Students are rejecting this attempt to co-opt them.

🚨 We just released a Pop. Ed series—60+ pgs!—on the collab btwn police, ICE & tech. 🚨
It's not new. Companies have always worked w/ cops & immigration. What's new is how invasive it's become.

@ConMijente We are seeing a lot of agreement from a lot of the attendees. @GeorgiaTech students should be proud of their peers. We need to use this mass consensus and work collectively to reject companies like @Amazon and @PalantirTech#NoTechForICE
Was just thanked unprompted by a GT student who said reading our flyer while in line for Palantir completely changed her mind and convinced her to avoid the booth for the rest of the fair.
This is why the reporting work of @ConMijente and others is so important.
#NoTechForICE
Thank you to Nico for translation of @bayneful's poster design. Collectively, @GeorgiaTech students are showing that ICE collaborators are neither wanted nor welcome on this campus
We will be at McCamish Pavilion tomorrow helping @GeorgiaTech students do their due diligence on employers like @Amazon and @PalantirTech -- who empower ICE in mass internment and family separation.
Come by between 9:30am-3:30pm to help or learn!
