This feels like a good time for a reminder about some of what's at stake with the inauguration tomorrow. Because it's not just symbolic.

When our family members and friends applied for DACA, they handed over their information: fingerprints, home address, work address, etc.
-
I told my own blood that applying for DACA would never mean it could turn into a deportation list. I was wrong. And I can't forgive myself.
-
Will this definitely happen? I don't know. Nobody knows. That's part of the problem. That, in and of itself, is fucking terrifying.
-
Unless you're in a mixed status family/community, it's difficult to understand how stressful this is rn. So much guilt, anxiety, fear.
-
Might your sister get thrown into detention because you told her it was safe to apply for DACA? Who knows? Absolutely nobody. Tuh.
-
Does the United States have a long and sordid history of unjustifiably detaining and deporting people? Ah hello yes of course.
-
Is it a stretch to suggest that Donald Trump is going to do exactly what he said he promised he would do on Day One? Umm.
-
Are we talking about the same Donald Trump that so many people thought would never get elected? You feel me?
-
People are in their feelings about the inauguration because Trump's presidency is about who gets to live and who gets to die. Remember that.
