[contains article from #TheWashingtonPost, with an introduction and background information from World-Outlook.]

"The article below first appeared in the April 10 edition of the Washington Post. It reports on successful protests in Sackets Harbor, in upstate New York, that forced Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to release three kids, and their mother. They had been wrongly arrested during an ICE raid in the nearby North Harbor Dairy Farm in late March.

The story offers an example of what can be done to resist some of the most extreme assaults on working families caught in the mass-deportation dragnet the #Trump administration has unleashed since taking office in January. "

Brilliant. We need so much more of this.

It'll likely be much easier in northern states than in southern ones.
