What are we doing to protect our immigrant neighbors?

My people didn't survive the gas chambers and centuries of pogroms for me to sit on my hands as "undesirables" in my community are rounded up. (If this upset you, please know I do not want our city overrun with criminals. I want to help the cooks, the caretakers, the construction workers—the hardest-working among us, the people who make our economy function—along with their families.)

Trump seeks to create a detention camp at Guantanamo Fucking Bay. ICE is running roughshod over cities across the country. We already saw POTUS rip children away from their parents at the border as a form of collective punishment. We already saw him try to stop Muslims from flying here. We've heard the insanely bigoted rhetoric from his admin over and over. We know the guardrails he encountered during his first term are mostly gone.

This is going to get a lot worse, and those who oppose this anti-immigrant streak need to prepare now.

Beyond taking to the streets, what can we do to protect those around us?

Edit: For those saying "Well they're here illegally", you should spend a few minutes on Google researching how the Trump admin is targeting legal immigrants too. Break out of your silo for a while and do some research - you might feel a wee bit uncomfortable, but you're big and strong - I'm sure you can handle it!

Edit 2, because of so many ignorant comments: There is a difference between comparing the Holocaust to what's going on now, and emphasizing that it's important to learn from history so we don't repeat the bad parts. If you cannot make this distinction, you may want to step away from the internet for a while.
