CLOSE THE CAMPS - Day 28 of a month of actions outside ICE San Francisco

 

August 28 - Day 28 - Fat & Disability Communities Unite to CLOSE the Camps!

 

An amazing and powerful turnout by the Fat & Disability communities to Day 28 of this month of noon rallies in front of ICE in San Francisco!

 

From the organizers of Day 28:

"Calling all Fat people, all Disabled people, all Seniors, all our loved ones, and anyone who has experienced being separated, shut away, controlled, disposed of, incarcerated in prisons, nursing homes, fat camps, psych institutions, or generally told they are the problem for society’s woes to UNITE in solidarity with migrants. Together we demand an end to the brutal treatment of migrants, an end to concentration camps, and an end to ICE. We know Disabled POC are at greater risk for incarceration and deportation. And we know that part of disability justice means we must absolutely hold community members whose impairments are created intentionally as a result of state terror, incarceration, border policing, war, and so many tools of domination. As Disabled and Fat people of many communities, we know and therefore must insist:

 

NO BODY IS DISPOSABLE!

 

WE ARE RESILIENT AND STILL HERE!

 

WE WILL NOT ALLOW THE ERASURE OF IMMIGRANTS!"
