Join us for an exciting webinar on September 14th at 6:00pm.
Award-winning US expatriate author, human rights advocate, and immigration scholar, Sarah Towle, joins us to illustrate how Trump & Co’s immigration agenda includes much more than family separations and a boondoggle border wall. From Chiquita Bananas to ”kids in cages” to $36K per person deportations, Sarah weaves together the many strands of their ongoing "War on Immigrants" to reveal the quiet genocide now taking place in all our names with our tax dollars.
Sarah celebrates the humanitarians tirelessly flying the tattered flag of American values in THE FIRST SOLUTION, “so that we may all see ourselves in them and be moved to act ourselves." We invite you to meet her heroes before the webinar -- read a chapter, any chapter, and bring along your questions and/or impressions -- here: https://medium.com/the-first-solution
Unfortunately, while it would be satisfying to blame Trump & Co alone, the stage had long been set for them to exact their cruelty. Sarah concludes the webinar, therefore, with insights on what a Biden administration must do to roll back not just the abuses of the last four years, but to course-correct decades of ill-conceive US immigration policies.

November is NOW. Citizens outside the US are starting to cast their ballots, and the earlier we all do so, the more impact we’ll have.
The VR team has been working hard all summer to get out the vote, but we are now in the final critical stretch. We very much need trained volunteers for increasingly busy virtual voter registration drop-in sessions via Zoom, now taking place on Tuesday and Thursday evenings and all day Sunday. So many people need our help to get their ballots in on time.
To prepare to help at these drives and among your own friends, please come to a Voter Registration/Back-up Ballot Training on Sunday September 13 from 3 to 4:30 pm BST.
