Join us for a National Day of Action for Children event on Friday, June 1st to tell the Trump Administraiton that families belong together! We’ll hear from kids, parents, and local leaders, and demand that the Trump Administration stop separating children from their families, and protect the well-being of all children — no exceptions. National Domestic Workers Alliance Children are being taken from their families, kept in separate facilities, unsure of when or if they’ll be reunited. This is the result of the cruel, new family separation policy that Donald … Continued

Christian fascist preacher Franklin Graham is coming to Berkeley on June 1st to hold his “Decision America California Tour” at Cesar Chavez Park. Billed as a religious revival, this is about mobilizing a blind, obedient, and fervent fascist social base for the Trump/Pence regime. And the tour stop in Berkeley delivers the message that Berkeley – and all who stand up to fascist authority – are in the cross hairs of fascist America. We must oppose Graham and the whole regime! https://www.facebook.com/notes/refuse-fascism-bay-area/protest-franklin-grahams-fascism-america-tour/463405274099518/64766

I don’t see any better way to celebrate father’s day than by protesting the immoral separation of families. I cannot in good conscience be a good father without teaching my children compassion and to fight for what is right. There was no way I could celebrate while families are being cruelly torn apart. While searching for a way to make this day more meaningful, my friend Megan proposed the idea of the protest at the ICE detention center. Yes, it’s last minute and 100% grassroots, but I hope you will … Continued

On June 14th hundreds of people gathered at the 4 corners of El Cerrito Plaza to protest the family separation policy that is traumatizing children, parents and frankly, the country. This is an evil policy, a disgrace, that cannot be ignored. It is self-imposed by the Attorney General and the President. Family separation is not a law, it is simply a policy designed in the most cruel way to deter immigrants seeking asylum at our border. Bring a sign, and be part of our Human Billboard.  64824

The conditions of detention centers are cruel and inhumane, and they exemplify a world where capital is valued over human lives. June 30 is a national day of action to support immigrant rights. Join East Bay DSA and Families Belong Together on June 30 to protest at the ICE/West County Detention Center in Richmond. June 30 is the anniversary of the signing of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965, which eliminated the cruel, previously existing quotas by country. But we still have a long way to go—capital moves across … Continued

Family separation is another Trump-created crisis. This is not at all required under current law — despite the lies coming out of Trump’s mouth — and Trump could put an end to this with a phone call. And like so many other Trump-created crises, Republicans in Congress are letting it happen. Some may have expressed concerns about the policy, but none have done anything about it. That’s where you come in. Join our rally as part of a national day of action (like the airport protests) in support of keeping … Continued
