A MESSAGE FROM DREAM ACTIVIST

 Hi Hispanic/Latinos A-D  Over the course of the last month we've had organizers from across the country come together here in Florida to find the stories behind the statistics. And so far we've been able to find 55 of these families, all suffering family separation and deportation, despite not being a priority. You've already heard about a few of them, remember Enrique? the detainee who was urinating blood. Well, good news, because of your work we were able to secure Enrique's release yesterday! The other 54 cases we have are just like his case, all low-priority and eligible for the same discretion he was given.


On August 6th we are hosting a large gathering of youth, families and allies from across the region to call for a facility wide review of the Broward Detention Center, and to ask that all low-priority deportations there be deferred just like that of Enrique. In order to make a big impact though we need your donations to get people out; a $35 donation will sponsor 1 rider, 2 riders for $70 and 10 riders for $350! [ http://action.dreamactivist.org/r/B/MTg1OTk/MTQxNjYx/0/0/aHR0cDovL2FjdGlvbi5kcmVhbWFjdGl2aXN0Lm9yZy9mbGJ1cy8jISMh


We already have students confirmed from Georgia, Kentucky, North Carolina and even Indiana! With your support we can have an even larger impact. This action is going to be crucial because, staring this week, many of the families we are working with are going to start a hunger-strike and so we need to show our support on the outside. Can you sponsor a rider for $35 and help us reach our goal of 100 riders, that's $3,500?! [ http://action.dreamactivist.org/r/B/MTg2MDA/MTQxNjYx/0/0/aHR0cDovL2FjdGlvbi5kcmVhbWFjdGl2aXN0Lm9yZy9mbGJ1cy8jISMh ]


Ending low-priority deportations at Broward would help detainees like Luis Villanueva. Luis, a day laborer was detained on November 14th for no reason. He was standing outside of a Home Depot looking for work when a police officer showed up and told him to 'get in the car before I hit you with my stick.' Despite being a low-priority deportation not only has Luis been detained for 9 months but he's also set to be deported any day now! Sponsor a rider to the August 6th rally so we can fight for others just like Luis, we need just 100 donations of $35 or more to reach our goal. Will you help us? [ http://action.dreamactivist.org/r/B/MTg2MDI/MTQxNjYx/0/0/aHR0cDovL2FjdGlvbi5kcmVhbWFjdGl2aXN0Lm9yZy9mbGJ1cy8jISMh


Each story from this detention center is just like the previous one, detained for no reason or really basic racial profiling and held for a long-period of time. We know we can stop these deportations, but we need your help to do it. If you can't sponsor a rider maybe you know someone who can?
