CTAN member Dr. Sophia Rodriguez of NYU writes in @nytopinion.nytimes.com: ICE presence and violence is terrorizing children. For the sake of our kids, this must stop! #Iceoutnow @sorophd.bsky.social

I wrote this months ago as ground was shifting. I analyze anti-immigrant education leg, discuss their inclusionary/exclusionary impacts, and share empirical evidence of how educators and kids are experiencing the chilling effects, and hope it is of use. steinhardt.nyu.edu/ihdsc/polici...

Looking forward to this talk in a few weeks! @sashelton.bsky.social @uncchapelhill.bsky.social

There will now be 10,000 new ICE agents & 100,000 new detention beds--and few safeguards protecting people from constitutional violations by the feds. Time for states to pass laws allowing people to sue fed agents. Read about it these "converse-1983" statutes here: papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

New blog up from in my series in my research lab from Rita Kamani-Renedo discusses ethnic studies and pedagogy that enables immigrant youth to see themselves in their schools. Check it out! www.immigrantednextsophiarodriguezphd.com/post/ethnic-... @immigrantednext.bsky.social #immigrantednext

Thanks for sharing the important work that districts are doing to support immigrant youth and families. I share my perspective here: calmatters.org/education/20....

UNHCR official warns that the 1951 refugee convention is increasingly under threat “I am not exaggerating when I say that the institution of the asylum worldwide is under more threat now than it has ever been,” said Ruvendrini Menikdiwela at UNHCR in Geneva apnews.com/article/asyl...

I did not think this would be exciting as it is I don’t know why because it was such a long journey to finish it, but this is pretty cool. Today is the day my book arrived. I received the first copy! Shout out to all the people who reviewed iterations of this work!! ❤️❤️ @rutgersupress.bsky.social

📣Read our explainer with @youthlaw.bsky.social @immigrantjustice.bsky.social @acaciajustice.bsky.social and others that outlines how the Trump admin. is undercutting Congress’ clear mandate to separate the care & custody of children from DHS’ enforcement goals. More here: bit.ly/4kzyZA6

It's so weird and scary to read the whole book for the last time before it's out in the world #nervous #immigranted #undocumentedinthesouth @immigrantednext.bsky.social @rutgersupress.bsky.social

Excited for a conditional acceptance, not excited for the last few minor revisions on a 60 page paper. UM. #sendhelp #almostthere #hopefully

My fav part about grant writing is having a fab grants admin (new to me!) to throw you over the finish line #gratitude #whyisitalwayshard 😅😱🙈🫠

Judith Butler: "Once you decide that a single vulnerable minority can be sacrificed, you’re operating within a fascist logic, because that means there might be a second one you’re willing to sacrifice, and a third, a fourth, and then what happens?"

"No private foundation can take the place of the federal government in its ability to fuel the new knowledge and scientific developments that enable such progress. What we can do, though, is hold true to our own principles," writes @agamoran.bsky.social

OMG my cute little book has a cover up: www.rutgersuniversitypress.org/undocumented... @immigrantednext.bsky.social I dedicated this to my mom and aunt, who sadly will not get to see this come out. For their sacrifices, which made my educational opportunity possible, I am deeply grateful.

Looking forward to seeing and giving a talk next week I can’t believe it’s almost March! Can’t wait to see my fav @timmonreal.bsky.social and colleagues! ❤️💜🙏 #belonging #immigranted @immigrantednext.bsky.social ed.buffalo.edu/news-events/...

Here, I explain how the February 14 "Dear Colleague" letter is a widely expansive distortion of the court’s ruling in SFFA. Institutional responses should remain focused on areas that the Supreme Court addressed and not expand to those clearly outside its purview. www.chronicle.com/article/hitt...

From the national desk, thanks for sharing my thoughts abcnews4.com/news/nation-... @immigrantednext.bsky.social
