Here's my story about the campaign #ReadThemHome that has brought together labor, community, and literary figures raising awareness about the families and children held in places like Dilley Detention Center, while also advocating for the full end of family detention
Stacey Abrams is interviewed at the end of this clip. Phenomenal discussion worth the watch!

Make sure that everyone in your life knows that Trump has imprisoned small children in facilities where they are being physically and psychologically abused.
They're being fed moldy food with worms.
They are being denied medical care.

The situation in Dilley, Texas should shock and horrify all of us and demand an urgent response from all of us. Our neighbors being held inside the South Texas Family Residential Center need our voices. Join us in building public awareness of these grave conditions. We will #ReadThemHome.
I read some stories for #readthemhome. #freeourchildren open.substack.com/pub/buddysta...
Listen as Rep. Castro reads "We Are One," for the
#ReadThemHome campaign. He reads, "We are the breath of our ancestors."
Many of mine were tortured concentration camps just like the one that the children in Dilley are being held in.
Let's raise the alarm about this.
Please share this video.
Children in the Dilley detention facility are being tortured, physically and mentally.
They have been ripped out of their homes and their communities and taken from every single thing that they own.
We cannot let this continue. Please share these videos from the #ReadThemHome campaign.
Should innocent children be put in jail?
Of course not, but Trump's jailed hundreds of kids in the Dilley detention center for over a month, where the food has worms & mold & kids are experiencing mental health crises & there's extreme medical neglect of children, including toddlers.

A msg from @elenahung.bsky.social — who is outside the Dilley Detention Center as part of #ReadThemHome
The trauma children in detention carry doesn't disappear when the cell door opens. The anxiety, regression, loss of language — that damage is real and it is lasting.
END FAMILY DETENTION!

A threat to any child is a threat to all children.
We need to end family detention everywhere, now.
