The mass deportations and violence against Black migrants continues everyday. We demand the protection, safety, and wellbeing of all Black immigrants and their families. #ThisIsRJ

Go to @instaBAJI to find out more about the recent deportations of Black migrants and read about the impact of anti-Black racism that African migrants face at Mexico’s southern border. #ImmigrationIsABlackIssue #FreeThemAll

[ID: 1) a picture of a Black woman on a yellow background with bold, black text that says, “There is a Target on Us” and subtext, “The Impact of Anti-Black Racism on African Migrants at Mexico’s Southern Border.” 2) a screenshot of a tweet via @ BAJItweet that reads, “Last week, the Biden administration deported hundreds of Jamaicans + Haitians. Today, this week & month, they are set to deport close to 2000 Africans + Caribbeans. At 3 pm today, a deportation flight takes off for Africa. Yesterday, one for Haiti; a few days before another for Jamaica. 3) BAJItweet screenshot that reads, “UPDATE: We have confirmation that the ICE deportation flight w/ Africans from Cameroon, Angola & DRC has been CANCELED. Now, we demand that they & others in detention are released and given permanent protections from deportation. And that all remaining deportations be canceled.” 4) BAJItweet: “Electeds and the immigrant rights movement must also fundamentally confront their anti-Blackness and stop using Black immigrants as sacrificial lambs in their attempts to pass ‘bi-partisan’ immigration legislation.”]

Returning to the status quo on family planning is

Returning to the status quo on family planning is important but not enough to ensure abortion justice. Let’s not forget who is most harmed by abortion restrictions--it’s people of color. The same people who are bearing the brunt of this pandemic; the same people who bear the brunt of systemic racism every day. We need bold action NOW to ensure Reproductive Justice for all.

In less than two weeks, Governor Newsom will be releasing his budget proposal for CA and we need your help urging him to include the budget request to establish the Forced Sterilization Compensation Program.

Between 1909-1979 CA sterilized at least 20,000 people - a third of eugenics sterilizations nationwide. Eugenic ideologies and practices continue to seep into state institutions across the country.

It’s time to #CompensateSurvivors of forced sterilizations and #EndEugenicsLegacy

🚨Link to the social media toolkit is in our bio.🚨

[ID: Bright yellow text on a black background that says, “I was 21 years old when I was sterilized without my consent. When I requested copies of my medical records I was made aware of three separate copies, which reflected conflicting reports of the procedure that was done. The hospital records were not the same as the prison medical records”. -Incarcerated at CA Women’s Prison]

🚨Action Alert: Call your state legislators toda

🚨Action Alert: Call your state legislators today and demand they support AB 15 & AB 16 to protect people and families from eviction during the pandemic and beyond.

AB 15 would extend COVID-19 eviction protections and AB 16 would provide assistance to tenants and small landlords.
