Please take caution when renting a vehicle…….

Several hundreds if not thousands of rental vehicles have been used to abduct and harm members of our communities across this country.

If you are renting a vehicle for any reason, please ask if it has been previously rented by ICE, CBP, HSI or any other immigration enforcement agency.

We have been talking about it and posting here and there…….Temporary Residents

So you may know that we have an upcoming gallery show featuring My work and my Partners (Terry Eastham) work. We are looking for a little thoughtful help……the ask is below 👇

Temporary Residents reflects a year lived in uncertainty. It is a protest, an archive, and a collective witness to what our world looks like right now. I’m inviting people to contribute a fragment of their experience from the past year—a sign, an image, a headline, an offering. This show exists so no one speaks alone. If you feel called to participate, please reach out. Dates TBD.
