New Orleans Protesters Call for Resistance to Immigration Crackdown
We have a message. I have a message for Trump and Landry, from all of us, and that is if you
want to make New Orleans the center of repression, we are going to make it the center of resistance.
If you want to take our brothers and sisters off the streets, if you want to kidnap immigrants,
if you want to displace our people, we are going to displace you.
Neat. That's what we need in this country. We need a socialist system.
Strike in New Orleans and how we can shut it down again today.
We want justice. What do we want? Shut it down. If we don't get it, shut it down.
Thank y'all so much. Code for the location. And finally, on December 14th, Sunday, December 14th,
that's the solidarity we need to build a united front that will destroy fascism in this country.
That's what's needed to make what happened in Charlotte happen everywhere,
but we got to be willing to do the work.
And I believe we can do it. If we got however many people are out here tonight,
braved all this traffic and came through all of this to be here,
we can do it tomorrow. We can do it the next day. If we keep doing this work, if we make
who's sitting, we stand here today in a country that prevails over the most expensive,
no justice, no justice, and we can't let them have peace. These, uh,
Jack Buddha thugs, these foam troopers, uh, ice, uh, the national guard,
this is what they are. This is, these are the same people as the Gestapo. That's what we
are experiencing today. And we cannot let this stand. We have to stand against all of us together.
I need y'all to come with us in solidarity against these forces, these anti-human forces.
There are strippers of our rights and
Oh, no KKK, no racist USA!
No Trump, no KKK, no racist USA!
When black lives are under attack, what do we do?
Stand up, fight back!
When immigrant lives are under attack, what do we do?
Stand up, fight back!
All right. All right.
We even got here, y'all. Uh, now, we have a comrade that's coming up here,
uh, sally for workers, uh, one of, one of, one of the brave native warriors from the,
uh, Wakana people. The people united will never be defeated!
Thank you so much. As we come together, we're going to fight and we're going to win.
Trump is saying that he wants to arrest 5,000 immigrants in New Orleans before border control
which would represent a huge escalation on the attacks that are already happening
in our city, in our communities, in the greater New Orleans area.
So we do believe that we could see things really escalate in the coming days,
which means that the people need to get ready to come out and defend our communities.
