how to help families separated at the u.s. border

As we all sit helplessly agog at the latest spectacle going on in the US, here are some organizations to which you can donate (or volunteer) to help.

How To Help Migrant Parents & Children Who Are Separated At The Border

It's the least we can do. And for most of us, the most we can do.

Where have we seen this before?  Message to My History Teacher, Who[m] I Once Asked Why No One Stopped the Concentration Camps: NEVER MIND

BBC: US Separates 2,000 Children in Six Weeks

NY Times: Taking Migrant Children From Families is Illegal, U.N. tells U.S.

New Yorker: Taking Children From Their Parents is a Form of State Terror (Canadians know about this.)

As a settler in Port Hardy, I live on the unceded traditional territory of the Kwakwaka’wakw peoples, whose historical relationships with the land continue to this day.




Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.

Margaret Mead

You may never know what results come of your action, but if you do nothing, there will be no result.
Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi

There is a tendency to think that what we see in the present moment will continue. We forget how often we have been astonished by the sudden crumbling of institutions, by extraordinary changes in people's thoughts, by unexpected eruptions of rebellion against tyrannies, by the quick collapse of systems of power that seemed invincible.
Howard Zinn

From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.
Karl Marx
