On Día de Los Muertos, in words and song, we remembered the lives unjustly taken this year in ICE custody.
"Ay, ay, ay, ay
Canta y no llores
Porque cantando se alegran, cielito lindo, los corazones."
Thanks to @ru1g.bsky.social for the beautiful photos.

#DisappearedInAmerica Weekend of Action – a national mobilization to honor the lives lost to our immigration system and demand an end to detention and deportation.
Heidy Sánchez is a nursing student. A mother. A wife. A survivor. She belongs with her 18-month-old daughter who suffers from convulsions — not stuck overseas with no way to get back.
Call Congress to demand due process: 202-224-3121

No crimes. No goodbyes to her infant daughter. Heidy was forcibly removed from the U.S. in 48 hours. We should all be furious. Call Congress to demand due process: 202-224-3121

Andry Hernandez Romero — a gay asylum seeker, makeup artist, and survivor of political violence — trusted the U.S. asylum system. But, he was deported to a mega-prison in El Salvador. No trial. No hearing. No justice. #DisappearedInAmerica#AbductedByTrump
Would you want your mother taken without cause or due process? Elsy Noemi Berrios is a mom, a worker, an asylum seeker. ICE must grant her a day in court. #DisappearedInAmerica#AbductedByTrump
No charges. No evidence. Elsy Noemi Berrios was ripped from her car and her children — accused of being a gang member without proof. This is not justice. This is persecution. #DisappearedInAmerica#AbductedByTrump
