Organizing works: celebrating our Avelo wins and planning what next – hosted by Siembra NC’s Defend and Recruit<\/p>\n
On January 7th, we won and loss.<\/p>\n
Thanks to the work of tireless organizing around the country – actions, boycotts, local resolutions, and so much more –\u00a0we have WON<\/a>.\u00a0Avelo has announced they will be stopping their work with ICE.<\/strong><\/p>\n But on the same day, ICE murdered a civilian in Minnesota. \u00a0a mother who was lawfully observing the agents, a constitutionally protected act of community defense.<\/p>\n When we take a step forward, it can feel like we\u2019re continuously being pulled backward. ICE’s actions and intensity are growing, and so must our movement.<\/p>\n And as we watch ICE break national laws and constitutional rights, and witness Trump\u2019s brazen disregard for international law by kidnapping a head of State and threatening others, we are grounded in our reality:\u00a0WE are the ones who must hold ICE, any corporation complicit in their horrific regime, and our political representatives accountable<\/strong>. We must continue to protect us, and we must continue to take action together.<\/p>\n
