The Greater Boston Interfaith Organization (GBIO), a coalition of more than 60 religious groups and unions, announced today that its members will pull $1 million from their Citizens bank accounts if the bank does not move quickly to end its relationships with the prison companies. #deicecitizensbank

“They were there in force – shareholders, clergy, unions, local activists, people of all ages, all colors."

Saturday, 11 am, stand together in Roslindale to oppose ICE warehouse prisons and Citizens Bank for financing those operations. Human beings are not cargo. No warehouse concentration camps. #CommunitiesNotCages @de-icecitizensbank.org #stopicewarehouses www.mobilize.us/disappearedi...

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

US citizens detained by ICE speak out: "They dragged me outside and pulled me into a headlock. I repeated, 'I'm a citizen. I have an ID.' The agent kept saying, 'That don't matter'... Inside my cell, I heard wailing, screaming, begging. Alongside that was the banter and laughter from the agents."

Voters showed their interest in this race is high! Thanks for bringing your passion and policy ideas.

Thanks for joining us and bringing some fire!

When I spoke to local activists here in Minneapolis, they told me there is a palpable sense that ICE agents are out for blood, that they want a fight, and you can feel it. I finally saw that myself at the Whipple Federal Building. ICE feels emboldened by the state covering for murder. Untouchable.

#ICEOutforGood Newton MA. Both sides of Centre, Beacon, and all islands. 570 people by my count. Fired up for democracy & against autocrats & secret police. Standing with Minneapolis & Portland!

NEW: The DNC warned 10 states that shared sensitive voter data with the DOJ that they may have violated federal law, specifically a “quiet period provision” barring states from removing voters from their rolls within 90 days of an election.

Through all the darkness, it’s encouraging to see so many community members standing up against the atrocities committed by our federal government. Thanks to @prowroxroz.bsky.social and LUCE for organizing our community! Democracy truly does start at home.

Neither rain, nor snow, nor temps in the teens can keep these defenders of democracy from showing up and standing out 11a-12p every Sat. at 840 Providence Hwy #Dedham on the #Boston line. #TeslaTakedown #NoTrillionaires #NoKings @visibilitybrigade.bsky.social

More people to include in the #NoKings count! About 60 people marched from Adams Park to Fallon Field in Roslindale MA on Oct 18. Unregistered event, but they want to be counted!

@universalhub.com covered #NoKingsWestRoxbury, full of unpaid peaceful protesters standing up for democracy, rule of law, competence & expertise, diversity, ending tariff mania, and much more. #nokings www.universalhub.com/2025/hundred...

Some of our senior community members couldn't get to our rally at the rotary, so they held their own outside their building at noon. There are more people to the left & right of the photo. #NoKings 1205-1215 Centre St, West Roxbury MA. 33 people. They want to be counted!

Close to 600 people at #NoKings rally in West Roxbury this morning. Great organizing job @prowroxroz.bsky.social!

One month left till Election Day in Boston. The Mayor's race is settled, but City Council is not. PWRR members voted to endorse Ruthzee Louijeune, Julia Mejia, Henry Santana, and Marvin Mathelier for At-Large; Enrique Pepén for D5; Ben Weber for D6. #bospoli

#Boston voters, have you met Marvin Mathelier yet? @marvinforboston.bsky.social #bospoli Our members chose him for our 4th City Council At-Large endorsement for lots of reasons. Just look!

Tomorrow is the preliminary election in the city of Boston. There are several good candidates for city council who would appreciate your votes. Mayor Wu would also welcome your vote to allow her to continue her good work. If you have not already voted, make a plan to vote tomorrow. #BosPoli #vote
