This could be the biggest evidence yet of Vivek #Ramaswamy's complete lack of fitness for the presidency. The US-born children of undocumented #immigrants are... AMERICANS. They became Americans the moment they were born on US soil. To get around this pesky fact, Vivek claims the 14th Amendment, which establishes birthright citizenship, is "contested". This is utterly baseless nonsense. The 14th Amendment was ratified in 1868, and has been the law of the land ever since.

Jason Stanley on the ideology (racist, and also anti-LGBTQ and antisemitic) underlying the mass shootings perpetrated by Payton Gendron and Ryan Palmeter — an ideology much more widespread than the term "extremist" applied to these mass shooters suggests.

We justify our actions by dehumanizing the other person.

As long as they don’t agree with us or they don’t look like us we are happy to dehumanize them.

On this day in 1927, Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, two Italian immigrant anarchists, were executed. Evidence was tampered with and their trial had a heavy anti-immigrant bias.

There is a great documentary about it called "Sacco and Vanzetti: The Trial of Two Italian Immigrants in the 1920's". It's streaming on Kanopy.

Today in Labor History August 23, 1970: The Salad Bowl strike began. Led by Cesar Chavez and the UFW, it was the largest farm worker strike in U.S. history. The strike was not only a battle between farm workers and the large, corporate growers. In late September 1970, the UFW launched a consumer boycott of all lettuce which had not been picked by members of the United Farm Workers. Violence was widespread. In November, someone bombed a UFW regional office. In December, federal marshals arrested and jailed Chavez. Two days later, former Olympic gold medal decathlete Rafer Johnson and Ethel Kennedy, widow of Robert Kennedy visited him in jail. However, an anti-union mob attacked Kennedy and Johnson on the steps of the jail. Only the intervention of Salinas city cops and the Brown Berets prevent injury to the visitors and full-scale riot.
The turf war between the Teamsters and the UFW continued after the strike and grew increasingly violent. A UFW picketer was shot on August 3. And on August 9, five firebombs were thrown at UFW picket lines. Another two UFW members were shot on August 11, and a UFW picketer was shot to death on August 16, 1973. Chávez ultimately entered into talks with the Teamsters. On September 27, 1973, the Teamsters agreed to leave jurisdiction over farm field workers to the UFW.
