Status for All! Access Without Fear! Respect Indigenous Sovereignty! Stop War! Climate Justice! End Capitalism!

No One Is Illegal (London, Ontario) is a group of immigrants, refugees, newcomers and allies who fight for the rights of all migrants to live with dignity and respect. No One Is Illegal acts to expose and educate against injustice from an anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist, anti-patriarchal, anti-ableist, anti-classist, anti-authoritarian and a q***r positive perspective, while asserting a vision f

or open borders and social and economic justice. We work to combat racial profiling, detentions, deportations, police and state brutality, wage slavery and all forms of indignity. We respect a diversity of mutually reinforcing tactics, including popular education and direct action. We are in active confrontation with a colonial system built on the dispossession and genocide of indigenous peoples, as well as racist anti-immigrant laws. We maintain that there are no illegal human beings, only inhumane laws and illegal states. The very basis of labeling entire communities as "illegal aliens", "non-status" or "status Indian" aims to reinforce an apartheid system; we reject any government's right to grant such status. We stand in solidarity with indigenous struggles against colonization across Turtle Island and also place ourselves within the broader movement for global justice struggling against capitalism, homophobia, occupation, patriarchy, poverty, war, and other systems of oppression and exploitation because we recognize that these are interconnected systems of oppression and domination that reflect and reinforce each other. We educate against injustice from all these perspectives and act to eradicate all these systems of exploitation and oppression. We organize from the basic principle that directly affected communities and individuals lead their own struggles for justice and self-determination. Those of us who participate in these struggles as allies do so from a position of solidarity not charity. We see strength in our unity and real justice will come as communities in struggle build greater trust in visions of an alternate world and organize, educate, act and fight for their own self-determination. Our work is carried out through various strategies including public awareness events, direct support with refugees, undocumented migrants and indigenous defenders, fighting back through rallies and direct actions, and ongoing campaigns and projects.

NOW! h/t Migrant Rights Network

05/14/2021

As an organization of migrants, struggling for the freedom to move, return and stay, Migrant Rights Network unequivocally supports the Palestinian struggle for liberation, and the right of return. We call on all migrants and supporters to find local protests in support of Sheikh Jarrah and against Israeli apartheid and join in! We call on Prime Minister Trudeau to heed Palestinians' call and take all possible measures including boycott and sanctions against the deadly Israeli occupation that has resulted in over a 100 dead in just the latest round of atrocities.

"Trying times all the time
Destruction of minds, bodies, and human rights
Stripped of bloodlines, whipped and confined
This is the American pride
It's justifying a genocide
Romanticizing the theft and bloodshed
That made America the land of the free
To take a black life, land of the free
To bring a gun to a peaceful fight for civil rights
You are desensitized to pulling triggers on innocent lives
Because that's how we got here in the first place
These wounds sink deeper than the bullet
Your entitled hands could ever reach
Generations and generations of pain, fear, and anxiety
Equality is walking without intuition
Saying the protector and the killer is wearing the same uniform
The revolution is not televised
Media perception is forced down the throats of closed minds
So it's lies in the headlines
And generations of supremacy resulting in your ignorant, privileged eyes
We breathe the same and we bleed the same
But still, we don't see the same
Be thankful we are God-fearing
Because we do not seek revenge
We seek justice, we are past fear
We are fed up eating your s**t
Because you think your so-called "black friend"
Validates your wokeness and erases your racism
That kind of uncomfortable conversation is too hard for your trust-fund pockets to swallow
To swallow the strange fruit hanging from my family tree
Because of your audacity
To say all men are created equal in the eyes of God
But disparage a man based on the color of his skin
Do not say you do not see color
When you see us, see us
We can't breathe"
