@rootedwords: #stitch with @Rubyána As a Black woman, let me be clear. We see what’s happening with the ICE raids. We know it’s wrong. But this is no longer our fight. We warned you. We marched. We voted. We told this country what was coming. And when they came for us, most of you were silent. So now we are tired. We have carried enough. I wish you safety, but Black people are done sacrificing ourselves for a nation that never protected us. #BlackAndTired #ICEraids #NoOneCameForUs #WeTriedToWarnYou #TrumpEraReality #ProtectBlackWomen #ImmigrationJustice #Accountability #BlackTikTok #LatinxTikTok #SocialJustice #SolidarityLooksDifferent #ThisIsAmerica #DoTheWork #ICE #immigration #AbolishICE #deportación #paleteros #blacklivesmatter #BlackVoices #immigrationjustice

I’m literally black and Mexican and i’ll say, don’t ask for solidarity at your protests when someone you know is shot by the police for no reason, and if you don’t care that, I have to say that I guess go ahead and make a stitch about that too. We cool that’s just my opinion.

I don’t see it as a problem at all. If you’re illegal, you’re illegal. You’re violating the rules. You’re violating the law. They have stepped in front of the line of other people who have done it the right way. They have been able to receive benefits for decades of the back of the African-American community, who fought for all these equal employment, opportunity, rights, and all this civil rights stuff. When the illegals came African-American men started being discriminated against they could not get construction jobs. They couldn’t even sell T-shirts on Crenshaw, but the illegals could sell fruit. They allowed them to sell clothes and food and have catering carts illegally so why in the world should they be upset about finally getting in trouble. It makes no sense. It’s not about who they voted for. It’s about a lot of things. Most of them don’t even support African-Americans causes. We want reparations, but they will tell us we don’t deserve reparations. So why would I want to support somebody that don’t even support me and also when you get any type of government benefits such as free education, free food, free, free, welfare cheap housing, etc. all that stuff is coming out of our pockets is coming out of all American citizens pockets. We’re paying taxes for it and it’s not fair to anybody. Why should we keep paying taxes for people to be here illegally and we haven’t even done anything for the US citizens that are homeless

The sad part is WE KNEW once he was in office there is nothing we could do and we tried so hard. It’s frustrating because now Black People are being called to “care” when we have been the majority to care about ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING
