DETAINED FOR NO LICENSE? ICE: DON’T SEPARATE BABY KAREN FROM HER DADDY

SIGN THE PETITION AND MAKE A CALL

On April 5th 2013, Oscar Canales had a minor traffic accident in Greensboro, NC on his way to work. He was arrested after not being able to provide a driver’s license. He cannot get one - North Carolina does not issue driver’s licenses to undocumented immigrants. He was then taken to Guilford County jail where he was placed under the custody of ICE. Oscar is currently detained at Stewart Detention Center in Georgia.

OSCAR COULD BE DEPORTED AT ANY TIME!

He is the primary breadwinner of this household. If deported, Oscar’s 9-month old U.S. Citizen baby girl Karen would be left to grow up without her father.

Help get Oscar released and his deportation stopped by making a phone call and signing the petition!

TAKE ACTION – MAKE A CALL:

Call ICE – John Morton @ 202-732-3000 or 202-732-3100

Sample Script: “Hi, I am calling to ask for the release of Oscar Canales-Berrios (A#098-935-658) from Stewart Detention Center. Oscar has been living in the U.S. for almost 10 years, he has no criminal record, and his US citizen baby girl Karen needs him home. He is a low-priority for deportation. Please don’t deport separate baby Karen from her daddy! Release Oscar now!”

“I can’t dump him now, because then people would think I am even more of a slut than they already do. How could one mistake cause my life to crumble like this?”

Would you publish your diary from when you were a pre-teen on the Internet for the entire world to read?

This is exactly what 27-year-old Emily Lindin (pen name) is doing in the name of countering slut shaming, with a Tumblr blog she has named The UnSlut Project.

"A three-day-old human embryo is a collection of 150 cells called a blastocyst. There are, for the sake of comparison, more than 100,000 cells in the brain of a fly. If our concern is about suffering in this universe, it is rather obvious that we should be more concerned about killing flies than about killing three-day-old human embryos… Many people will argue that the difference between a fly and a three-day-old human embryo is that a three-day-old human embryo is a potential human being. Every cell in your body, given the right manipulations, every cell with a nucleus is now a potential human being. Every time you scratch your nose, you’ve committed a holocaust of potential human beings… Let’s say we grant it that every three-day-old human embryo has a soul worthy of our moral concern. First of all, embryos at this stage can split into identical twins. Is this a case of one soul splitting into two souls? Embryos at this stage can fuse into a chimera. What has happened to the extra human soul in such a case? This is intellectually indefensible, but it’s morally indefensible given that these notions really are prolonging scarcely endurable misery of tens of millions of human beings, and because of the respect we accord religious faith, we can’t have this dialogue in the way that we should. I submit to you that if you think the interests of a three-day-old blastocyst trump the interests of a little girl with spinal cord injuries or a person with full-body burns, your moral intuitions have been obscured by religious metaphysics."
Sam Harris, on stem cell research. (via we-are-star-stuff)

Larry White, in his 70’s, has spent 32 years of his life behind bars. He discusses how difficult it was for him to transition back into society after being in prison for so long. While he was incarcerated, he had organized a small social network within prison to advocate for better treatment of inmates. Once released, he decided to continue his advocacy, especially for older inmates living behind bars: “My whole life now is geared to go back in and help those I left behind.”

Al Jazeera English hosts an award-winning documentary series, Fault Lines, and this episode examines life sentences and the elderly within the prison population in the United States. [x]
