Helping our Immigrant Neighbors
The best way for citizens to help is by helping everyone know their rights, recording incidents you see, and refusing to comply by providing information of any kind.
Fighting Misinformation
The labeling of migrants and immigrants as “gang members and rapists” is an intentional strategy to dehumanize and other a community of people.
Data from Texas show that unauthorized immigrants are 26% less likely to be convicted of homicides as native-born Americans. Similarly, in Georgia, illegal immigrants are 32% less likely to be incarcerated for homicide as other Georgia residents.

The "illegality" myth
Turns out if you make up a fake problem and blame a fake scapegoat - it is really hard to deliver on a promise. In order to meet their insanely high quota of arresting 3,000 people a day non-criminal immigrants are being targeted and many are at risk of losing their legal statuses. They are being targeted at their places of work and courthouses during legal proceedings. Basically - the idea of "only going after the ones who are doing it illegally" is a facade for the clear racism of white nationalists.
