In a recent episode of "Movement Memos," Silky Shah and host Kelly Hayes discuss the implications of immigration raids by ICE in sanctuary cities. The episode focuses on rising authoritarianism, effective organizing tactics, and the significance of language in political framing. Shah, a noted organizer and author, emphasizes the need to understand current threats to civil liberties and the importance of grassroots action and solidarity to combat these authoritarian practices. The conversation underscores the urgency of collective resistance in the face of oppressive forces.
Fascism and authoritarianism are deployed through law enforcement, and recent ICE raids in sanctuary cities highlight this chilling reality.
Understanding the threats we face and how our language and framing can strengthen or sabotage organizing efforts is crucial in the current socio-political climate.
