#Inspiring! Eleazar Valdez came to the US at the age of 13 & obtained his Bachelor's & Master's degrees before #DACA, the CA Dream Act & drivers licenses for #undocumented immigrants were even a reality! Today, Eleazar works directly with immigrant communities across Central CA.

Not feeling the red, white, and blue.
Red is for all the blood this nation has shed in its imperialist and colonial conquest.
Blue is for the land this nation stole from coast to coast.
And white is for the white supremacy ideology this country is founded on. #4thofJuly

Congrats Ricardo Pedro Pablo, a young man from Tuxtepec, Oaxaca from the Chinanteca community. He graduated from @MIT w/ a PhD in Physical Chemistry. His mother, Concepción, accompanied him at his graduation ceremony proudly wearing a beautiful huipil from the Cuenca region. 👏🏾
New: We obtained a recording of a phone call between a scared 7-year old being held in an ORR shelter and his mother in Guatemala. He crossed the border with his father almost a month ago and still hasn't spoken to him.
“We are going to see you again,” she tells him.
Banner drops across FL calling for divestment from private prison companies like GEO Group and to #AbolishICE. GEO has dumped tons of cash on FL politicians which has allowed them to operate with little opposition or regulation. Rick Scott alone has taken over $718,000 from GEO.
We are at the Broward Transitional Center, a private immigration detention center owned by GEO Group. Creating a profit incentive for imprisoning people and keeping them imprisoned is immoral. We call on all elected officials and candidates in FL to reject private prison money.
