Psst….There are plenty of White undocumented Europeans, Canadians, Middle Eastern, and others in America
Yet Trump, MAGA and the goons from ICE only target Hispanics/Latinos/Haitians & others that are Non-White
How come these White people are not targeted , dragged out of cars , kidnapped , afraid to go to work etc etc
Targeting only Non-White people for selective deportations is Un American

In certain situations where an ‘ act of injustice ‘ by government agents leads to the potential loss of innocent life and injury ‘civil disobedience’ is appropriate
It is critical to understand context and in this situation sometimes allowing an ‘unlawful ‘ process where the loss of innocent lives is not at stake it is more effective to not engaged than inserting an act of ‘civil disobedience’
The courts frequently will dismiss matters where ‘due process’ and violation of the ‘rule of law’ will create dismissal of a case against a protester
Protesters must be ‘armed’ with knowledge of the law in the context of the actions being committed and then act accordingly

My favorite true story on MLK Day, decades ago I was living in Altadena, Ca during the Rodney King saga
I was protesting real hard and in your face against the LAPD and they started to chase down the protestors with tear gas etc
I was running so fast( I run extra fast when the po -po is chasing me) as I rounded a alley there was a White guy in a pick up truck and he said jump in the back.. I did just that and he drove about a mile away and he saved my Black ass from the LAPD
I will always remember this guy forever and always
I know there are millions of White Americans who value Black Folks
This is one of the reasons I celebrate MLK Jr Holiday
Peace and Love

MLK JR holiday day takes me back to a bedtime tale that would make go to sleep and stop asking my parents’Why ‘
When MLK was assassinated the riots were so instructive for me , I noticed how my life and my community changed..
I got admitted to college, my father got a full time job, white folks moved out of the neighborhood and my family moved in to better housing

What happened to the innovative and creative legal genius in our country? Where are the legal ideas and strategies that will allow people who have lived lawful and productive lives in America that are ‘undocumented ‘ and being targeted for deportation by ICE?
Where are our Congressional leaders and staffers that can create laws for our immigration judges for those deserving undocumented people to stay in America and secure lawful citizenship??
It is disturbing and unsettling that such legislation and strategic thinking is not being expressed in the areas of legally challenged immigration and cruel and unwarrranted deportations in America

As I noted for weeks now the tide is changing against Trump and I expect Trump will retreat on a number of issues and his agenda
I have been an activist for over 6 decades and my instincts and beliefs about humanity is built into my DNA
More to come……
