Got turned down on a piece about ICE in Chicago for an international news org because they believed I couldnβt be objective about my neighbors getting kidnapped. And well, guilty as charged I guess.
I spent Halloween chasing ghosts. Not kids in costumes, or jumpscares in a haunted house. I spent Halloween chasing ghosts of a different kind: careening from one ICE spotting to another. I wrote an essay about it, and about other ghosts weβre chasing.
Just spent nearly two hours in a line of cars to drop food off for families losing their SNAP benefits. Right now is a literal nightmare but it is incredible to see communities coming together. Everyone understands that the only ones to save us is us.
