washingtonians you can get involved by supporting La Resistencia. It is led by undocumented women who are organizing to end ICE detention centers, particularly the one in Tacoma

Have you tried this form? https://laresistencianw.org/take-action/ They are most active on Insta, where they will post events like solidarity days, rallies and vigils! If you're able, I highly recommend going in person to meet them and find out ways to help!
Theyve been in this fight for ten years and are uncompromising in the best way. They center the need for decolonization and anticapitalism, trans rights and joy as resistance.
question, i always go to the day of remembrance in Tacoma and noticed JACL doesn’t list La Resistencia this year or mention the ICE facility. Do you know if they’re still going like normal? after the Puyallup event? you can dm me if that’s better
Thank you for asking! This year we are having the NWDC event on February 23, at 1pm. We didn't do the usual two-parter because Puyallup JACL wants to celebrate the opening of the permanent exhibit. Heres a flyer!
Yeah we were sad about that too, but hope people will turn out for this one! We'll be ramping up outreach and advertising the rally soon, please do spread the word!
yeah I remain slightly suspicious that JACL is just being reactionary and wack... but yes I'll definitely tell people to come to the event and try to make it myself, I'm on call for work that day. Thanks again.
