  3. The last part of this pull quote is the actual story. Not all the quaint bullshit I was excited about.

    "By 2024, the community had outgrown its rented rooms and church basements and purchased the building that became the new #Jewish center, roughly tying one in #Fairbanks, #Alaska, as the northernmost #Chabad houses in the world. The building sits in #Reykjavik’s compact downtown, just blocks from the iconic #RainbowStreet and #Harpa #OperaHouse that make the city one of the most Instagram-friendly sites in the world.

    In a city that caters to tourists, and for a community built largely from #immigrants, longtime #Icelandic Jewish families, and people who married into Icelandic life, the new center represents something rare: a shared physical home.

    “It’s been clear for a long time that we need a home for our community,” said one Jewish resident in #Iceland, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because not all of his colleagues know he is Jewish."

    "#Scandinavians in the upper Midwest, #AfricanAmericans clustered in the South and beyond, #MexicanAmericans in the Southwest, #Portuguese along the coast of New England, #Yemeni #immigrants and their descendants in Detroit, and #NativeAmericans living across a country that was once theirs.

    “Much of what we see is a history of #immigration,” explain the authors, #AlbertSun, #JeffAdelson and #LarryBuchanan. The story accompanying the #map goes on to describe the ebbs and flows of the #migrant tide, including the surge at the turn of the 20th century and the current crackdown on #refugees, #asylumseekers and even naturalized citizens.

    But zoom in on the map, and there’s a notable omission: #Jews. Hover over Manhattan, home to one of the largest #Jewish communities in the world, and you’ll find pockets where 20% or more of the residents are #Chinese, #PuertoRican, African American, #Dominican, #German and #Italian. Conspicuously, there is no heading for “Jewish.”

  7. Aa very timely, insightful article. I have linked to the free version - My family has been here since 1621. That is not what makes me American: Philip Bump. Consider that, in 2024, about 25% of immigrants to the United States had arrived before 1990. A quarter of immigrants, then, had been here for at least 1 out of every 7 years that the U.S. has existed. archive.ph/AmU7D#selection-200 #democracy #immigrants #immigration #maga #politics #history #ancestry #citizenship #courts #law #presidents

    #Trump Turned the US’ #Refugee Program Into a Pathway for #White People

    Trump has upended the program, which for decades had made the #US a sanctuary for people fleeing disaster & persecution.

    Under Trump, it has effectively become a #WhitesOnly path to life in the US, a culmination of Trump’s longstanding antipathy toward #immigrants & his embrace of the concept of “reverse racism” as a guiding principle in his admin.

    A North Korean defects. She is given a pill against tuberculosis and and another against parasites as a general protocol.

    I can't imagine that white visitors to South Korea are treated the same way.

  15. A federal judge in California on Tues issued a #nationwide block against the #Trump admin’s policy of #arrests at #ImmigrationCourts….

    Last year, #ICE began detaining #immigrants in #courthouse hallways across the country, sometimes moments after pleading their cases. The move raised alarm among attorneys & advocates who said the practice was turning #immigration courts from places of #DueProcess into zones of fear & punishing people who were following the rules.

  17. #PortlandOR - #GrowPortland #CommunityGardens

    "From 2010 - 2018, Grow Portland transformed underused land throughout Portland into thriving gardens. We built or sponsored multiple gardens that help people grow healthy food for their families and communities. Our work focused in East Portland, the most ethnically diverse and lowest income area of our city.

    "Grow Portland led the successful expansion of #CommunityGarden access for #refugees and #immigrants, creating important healing spaces for families recovering from trauma and displacement. Our organization is now focused on school garden education through our #GardenSchool program where we partner with regional schools. Community gardens are managed by our partners, the City of Portland Community Gardens Program and nonprofit, Outgrowing Hunger who can help interested gardeners enroll in a plot in these gardens.

    "Our community gardens work started at the height of the financial crisis when our region faced a huge waiting list for community garden plots. Grow Portland built and sponsored ten gardens throughout Portland, helping more than 5,000 new gardeners access land and resources— more than two-thirds of these gardeners are low income, refugees, immigrants and/or people of color."

  18. As the #Trump admin has ramped up arrests of #immigrants, it has relied on #GeoGroup to help it significantly expand the nation’s capacity for holding #ICE detainees. Advocates for immigrants & some #state regulators say poor #oversight at many of these facilities has led to the mistreatment of migrants.

  20. Scharf’s memo, in its unassuming way, was a blinking red warning light. The 2nd #Trump White House was deliberating an explosive new claim of #PresidentialPower: the suspension of habeas rights for unauthorized #immigrants.

    The suspension of #HabeasCorpus has occurred just a handful of times in US history, & always under the most dire circumstances of #war or #invasion.
