New on our blog: it’s been over two months since the world turned towards Minnesota when thousands of ICE agents occupied and terrorized our communities, abducting and killing our neighbors.

As we collectively organized to keep each other safe, we were held up by the support of tens of thousands of people from across the country. Since January, hundreds of generous community members have helped Voices for Racial Justice show up for our immigrant communities.

We’re grateful to be able to share our collective impact with you ❤️
