Fears of #racial profiling swirl over registration policy for #immigrants in the #US illegally

The new mandate evokes previous instances of certain groups having to carry documentation. During the time of enslavement in the U.S., freed Black people had to have “freedom papers” or risk being re-enslaved. During World War II, Japanese Americans were required to register and keep identification cards but were put in incarceration camps.
The renewed strict registration requirement forces U.S. citizens to carry birth certificates or other proof of citizenship at all times, “especially if they have a ‘foreign appearance,’ People who are valid residents or visa holders could potentially be profiled based on factors other than physical characteristics

Does the arresting officer ask this question at EACH and EVERY traffic stop? If not, this is #profiling and #racial #discrimination. That's #illegal. This officer should be facing #civil #rights violation charges. Meanwhile, keep the pressure on. Highlight every #detention. Get the #press involved. Shine a #light on these #wrong #arrests.

youtu.be/S3ADfkzdi9k?si=8Cf4zu… This is so rare that it's newsworthy. Any #cop who does this should have a mark on his record but its often standard operating procedure and the judge just goes along with it. This Judge should be the norm, not the exception. This is why there is no #racial #justice . #ACAB #racism

Registration: libraryjuice.zoom.us/webinar/r

“Solving Names” for American pragmatist #philosopher William James meant that no further debate or enquiry was needed. In #Librarianship this means the construction, maintenance, and reproduction of #racial, #settler- #colonial, #patriarchal #capitalism.
