The job of the Attorney General is to be a voice and advocate for the people and the environment, but A.G. Bill Schuette has spent his tenure doing the bidding of wealthy donors, standing by as Line 5 and Nexus threaten our Great Lakes, as Flint children drank poisoned water, as Nestle bottles water for virtually free while citizens of Detroit are having their water shut off. We say NO MORE!

We are channeling our solidarity and rage through art to evoke a collective empathy and resistance. We demand an end to family separation across all communities.

Come join us on Saturday, July 14th at 6pm in front of the Spirit of Detroit as we continue the fight to end family separation through visual art, spoken word, and music from local artists.

The County Commissioners think we have given up, but nothing could be farther from the truth. We will gather by the Calder at 8am to talk about what will happen that day and some future plans. We will go to the County Commission meeting to demand that they end their contract with ICE. The Commission meeting is in Room 310 County Administration Building, 300 Monroe Avenue NW.

Michigan voters are under attack, and we need your help.

Join us on Tuesday, July 10th at 12:00pm in Detroit to stop the attack on Michigan's redistricting proposal.

A measure to end gerrymandering in Michigan just qualified for the November ballot -- and it's already under attack. A dark money group is backing a lawsuit to stop the people of Michigan from voting on whether to end gerrymandering.

The non-Yemeni activist community is coming together to lend support to our fellow Yemeni Americans, especially those who live in Hamtramck.

The Yemenis in America and Yemen are going through a triple crisis:
• family and friends are being massacred in a deadly war in their home country
• they are facing severe limits on travel into and out of America
• as Muslims, they are victims of Islamophobic discrimination in America
