People are spontaneously posting up near any laborers or street vendors they spot. Just saw a rapid responder guarding a man working on a building exterior. Many things are terrible today but lord, this stuff matters.

Pepper ball guns at the ready, a bit of a standoff going with remaining protesters. All people are doing is playing music.

The reporting is extraordinary and because they are Black Chicagoans they are able to report about the impact on our communities because they are part of the community.

They are up holding the traditions of the Chicago Defender and Ida B Wells.

Attorney for woman shot by Border Patrol claims officer said 'Do something b-----' before shooting Body-camera video appears to contradict the government's claim that Marimar Martinez, 30, drove toward officers before one of them opened fire at her late Saturday morning in Brighton Park, her attorney claimed. A judge ordered Martinez and a co-defendant released pending trial.

when 2 ICE agents come to abduct our neighbors, Chicagoans can band together and force them to flee. This is deeply embarrassing for ICE/CBP and Greg Bovino and shows how much Trump's war on Chicago relies on their numbers and the willingness of people to look the other way.

Based on the latest reporting about the Border Patrol shooting in Brighton Park this morning:

A Chicago woman was shot by CBP and is in fair condition.

DHS claims CBP vehicles were rammed & boxed in. Other parties involved say CBP’s vehicle hit a car, possibly crashing that car into another.
