Our country was built on the backs of slaves, built on land belonging to Native Americans, built by conquest, and conquest rarely happens without violence. We burned this country into existence, forged it from fire, nourished it with blood. Our nation stands on ashes.

Do Not Deport the Children!

Do not deport these children. Protect them. Help them reunite with their families. Welcome the stranger. Welcome the children.
