ICE arrests are forcing American moms to leave their jobs
19thnews.org
A new analysis shows that increased immigration enforcement is reducing labor in the child care workforce. The ripple effect is impacting mothers with young children.

Yes, people, including children, are being disappeared to concentration camps but the real victims are the white suburban moms privileged enough to offload their snot nosed brats to other people now being forced to take care of their spawn themselves. Those are the people we should feel bad for, surely.

    Of course we should talk about the suburban white moms and how ICE is affecting them

    Everyone draws lines between themselves and the victims… Unless you have the wisdom to realize there is no line. But the vast majority, even ones with empathy for the victims, will never understand that

    So yes. We should be highlighting all the ways we are connected to the victims. We have to chip away at this idea that you’re safe because you’re a white suburbanite

    We’re all connected. When they throw Maria in the van, your child loses a caretaker. When they raid buses, they’re stealing food off your plate.

    They are attacking you when they come for your neighbors. That’s where you have to get people to mentally

    Because where’s the line now? It’s between us and the government actually doing the thing
