Reminder that we do NOT live in "unprecedented" times.

On this day on Feb. 5, 1917, Congress passed the Immigration Act of 1917 to block “undesirable” immigrants. That meant a ban on Asian, Mexician, and Mediterranean migrants, literacy tests, new taxes, & excluded the poor, disabled, & criminalized.

Meanwhile white European migrants were welcomed with open arms & given land via Homestead Act.

This racist law was finally repealed in 1952.

Trump wants to revive this fascism. Do not let him.
