Tomorrow many American families will gather to celebrate the birth of a refugee, wrapping gifts, embracing one another, and appreciating the warmth of family together (even if there might be some friendly bickering).
But for so many asylum seekers Christmas Eve will be spent:
- shivering in the open awaiting asylum in Ciudad Jaurez, Mexico where nearly half of those awaiting are under the age of 12
- by mothers still hearing the cries of the children ripped from their arms
- by 10,000 children trying to remember the feel of a father’s sweater against their face or the feel of their mothers lips to their cheek
- sick from the flu, lying on bare concrete floors and benches, denied a doctor’s care. Where your suffering and the misery surrounding you is not accident but intentional, the product of well-planned cruelty by a fascist regime wherein this is only the beginning
- mourning their children, killed or stolen by this regime.
They are waiting on us, on you, to end this now, while there is still time. In all truth, we are the only ones who can, by waging mass sustained non-violent resistance not stopping until the fascist Trump/Pence Regime is removed. For children all over the world.
Join us today because you know every day this regime remains in power imperils the future.
Join us today because you know telling these kids to wait for the 2020 election is unconscionable.
Join us today because you know that cheering for impeachment from the sidelines or thinking it’s enough to stain Trump’s legacy while the republi-fascists are obstructing and Trump prepares his troops for a civil war is painfully insufficient.
Will you give a gift to these kids, to all of humanity, to the future of this planet by making a generous gift today to get Trump/Pence #OutNow? The widespread joy over impeachment must become manifest in the streets in order to drive this whole regime from power.
We are in dangerous and unpredictable times. The most important thing is that we, the people, not be passive spectators. Join us in making January a month of struggle, with growing nonviolent protests demanding the whole regime must go NOW.
People in India are rising up. Now is the time for people in this country to do the same.
> > GIVE TODAY to take January by storm with the #OutNow Movement mobilizing mass nationwide protests & sending volunteers to take the demand to D.C. during Senate Impeachment Trial & National Women’s March.
