We will not be silent. We will not be patient. We will not compromise our demand for liberation.
These executions are not isolated incidents but interconnected tragedies rooted in the unchecked power of armed militarized forces in our communities.
We stand firmly with our immigrant and refugee communities who are forced to live under constant threat and surveillance.
As abolitionist organizations, we believe there can be no true public safety while ICE, police, and prisons exist. There can be no justice while lives are treated as expendable.
We demand a future rooted in care, not cages. In healing, not harm. In collective safety, not state violence.
A new world is not only possible. It is necessary.
