DESCRIPTION:San Francisco Tour of Shame: End Corporate Profiteering Off Detention and 
 Deportation! Close the Camps Now! (Scroll to the bottom for details on 
 logistics)\n\nFrom the day he took office, Donald Trump escalated a failed 
 and cruel immigration policy into an all-out war against immigrants, 
 banning Muslims, slamming the door on refugees, tearing children from their 
 parents' arms. Each new affront has been met with outrage and protest, but 
 even when he has retreated, Trump has sought new lines of attack: 
 concentration camps, workplace raids, new bars to green cards and 
 citizenship. Meanwhile many immigrants are being terrorized in their own 
 communities, afraid to answer the door, take children to school, or go to 
 work. These communities need to see and feel the solidarity of the majority 
 that stands with them. We call on all those who oppose the raids, family 
 separation, deportations and incarceration to unite against this reign of 
 racist persecution. It is time to say, "¡Basta Ya!" Enough is 
 enough!\n\nThis Indigenous Peoples’ Day weekend let us act together 
 --whether with a march, vigil, rally or direct action-- against those who 
 would give us a future of division and white supremacist hate. It’s only 
 fitting to have these actions on Indigenous Peoples’ Day. Many immigrants 
 crossing the border are indigenous and are not given proper translators in 
 their indigenous languages. The current colonial border between the U.S. 
 and Mexico were imposed upon Indigenous Peoples on both sides. They 
 didn’t cross the border, the border crossed them and no one is illegal on 
 stolen land! Let us unite in broad regional coalitions drawing together 
 people of faith, unions, anti-racist fighters and other progressives to 
 target camps, jails, shelters or other parts of Trump's anti-immigrant, 
 deportation machinery. Let us act in the knowledge that no human being is 
 illegal anywhere, not least in a country formed through violent 
 colonialism. Most of all let us open our arms to immigrants in our country 
 or at our borders with a greeting of friendship: Mi casa es tu casa. Our 
 home is also your home.\n\nTentative Schedule:\n2pm - Meet at Rincon 
 Park\n2:45pm - March\n4:15pm - Rally at Ending Point\n\nIf you would like 
 to get involved, please contact immigration@dsasf.org\n
