10/17: U.S. BORDER ABUSE OF MIGRANTS SHOWS HYPOCRISY OF THE BOGUS ANTI-CHINA XINJIANG FOCUS
Tony Murphy – China–U.S. Solidarity Network
The anti-China media lie claiming concentration camps and genocide against Uygur Muslims is part of an overall propaganda pattern that should remind anybody of the weapons-of-mass destruction campaign that led to the U.S. war against Iraq.
Moreover, recent events at the U.S. border show how absolutely hypocritical that lie is.
This weekend a White House senior legal expert wrote a 3,000-word memo calling Biden's 700,000 southern border expulsions since February "inhumane" and "illegal."
The world was rightly outraged at U.S. border patrol agents, on horseback, using reins as whips and attacking Haitian migrants just trying to secure food.....

10/8: Walls Are Dumb but President Biden's ‘Smart Border’ Is Even Worse
Todd Miller—The Border Chronicle
In December 2019, the city of Chula Vista announced with much fanfare that it had been designated as California’s first Welcoming City. This designation honored the community’s commitment to include its undocumented residents. Located 15 minutes from the U.S.-Mexico border, Chula Vista has one of the highest populations of immigrants in the United States, about 30 percent of its population of 270,000. Rachel Peric, the director of Welcoming America, said this “inclusive environment” was a “model . . . to ensure residents of all backgrounds—including immigrants, can thrive and belong.”
College student Nicholas Paúl told me his city’s designation “was a proud moment” for his community. Raised on both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border, Paúl is emblematic of many residents from Chula Vista. “I’m a fronterizo,” he told me. Every weekend he crossed the border to Tijuana to visit family and friends. “It’s a way of life,” he said. “It’s not something that is unique to me. It’s my whole family, my whole neighborhood.”....

Useful Handouts and Know Your Immigrant Rights When Marches
Immigrant Marches / Marchas de los Inmigrantes
(By ACLU)
Immigrants and their supporters are participating in marches all over the country to protest proposed national legislation and to seek justice for immigrants. The materials available here provide important information about the rights and risks involved for anyone who is planning to participate in the ongoing marches.
If government agents question you, it is important to understand your rights. You should be careful in the way you speak when approached by the police, FBI, or INS. If you give answers, they can be used against you in a criminal, immigration, or civil case.
The ACLU's publications below provide effective and useful guidance in several languages for many situations. The brochures apprise you of your legal rights, recommend how to preserve those rights, and provide guidance on how to interact with officials.
