Family Separation is Still Happening

Just a reminder: It is still official U.S. government policy to separate immigrant children from their families.  The number of children now separated in this manner is north of 1,300, and will continue growing until the Trump administration stops --- or someone stops them:
We all know now what’s happened to America these last 506 days. The question is, What are you and I going to do about this? As some have noted since the early days of the Trump administration, whatever you would have done during the other great moral crises that have afflicted our modern world — the Holocaust, or the fight to end segregation in the American South — is what you are doing, or not doing, right now.
A reminder that you may have the chance to speak out about this horror on June 14 --- although sadly, it seems that there aren't events in every city (including mine).

And here are suggestions for other things you can do.
