ICE is arresting a record number of pregnant women and teenagers, according to government documents obtained by the Guardian.
At the same time, the agency appears to have lost count of how many suffered a miscarriage. 🧵

The US media's response to a film's evidence on Israel's targeting of civilians?
Report on the directors possibly losing the citizenship for being brave enough to bring the evidence to light.
In no way talk about the evidence itself. Can't risk being anti-Israeli by calling out Israeli war crimes.

American history is filled with examples of white men paying little - if any - penalties when being called out on their lies or outright illegal acts.
Ariely fabricated evidence on a paper about dishonesty. And yet he was still given a leadership role at Duke University.
Why? Because he was white.

Almost every woman HAS been sexually assaulted.
Many of us have had it happen more than once.

If you’re grabbed by someone wearing “shock gloves”…your body may convulse involuntarily.
It could look like you’re resisting arrest when in reality, you’re in medical distress.
The appearance of resistance will embolden ICE to use lethal force.

His speech endures as a mirror & mandate for us all—to confront our inequities while fighting for an America as good as its promise.
