CECOT is a death camp. The USA is illegally, unconstitutionally, and invalidly sending people to an explicitly identified (people go in but don’t come out) Death Camp. We need to admit & acknowledge this because this is the level & intensity of threat we face: 👏USA IS USING DEATH CAMPS 👏

The Syrian Arabic word for a hamster is أبو جراب (abu jrab), where jrab refers to a pouch/saddlebag/tote. And abu often means “father of,” but can also function as a general honorific (like “mister”). So it’s not too big a stretch to say the Syrian Arabic word for a hamster means “Mister Saddlebags”

Any anti-bias disability training for the police won't work, in my opinion, if some police officers in general remain quick to pull the trigger. This is devastating.

Resistance to the Fugitive Slave Act included mobs, but increasingly came to include open defiance by state governments. Personal liberty laws. State court habeas writs. Officials assisting and shielding people. Federal courts ignored. Frankly a kind of anti-slavery nullification and interposition.
