Borders are violently imposed upon Indigenous and Stolen Lands, a consequence of colonialism, capitalism, and the delusion of white supremacy, resulting in widespread forced displacement globally.
Simultaneously, the so-called “US” exploits, incarcerates, and dehumanizes both native peoples and migrants forced to flee the turmoil it instigates in their homelands, particularly in resource-rich regions.
Migrants, immigrants, and refugees often undertake the most hazardous forms of labor, yet they are systematically denied safety and security.
We honor the lives, stories, and families of the 6 migrant men from Mexico, El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras still missing or lost their lives from the dangerous, risky work they were assigned to do on the Francis Scott Key Bridge.
In support of our beloved communities, we are spotlighting migrant justice organizations that advocate for dignity, safety, and collective liberation. Please click the images to learn more about these powerful, transformative migrant justice organizations.
