      Every one of these dots represents a protest against family separation tomorrow. Yeah. There are a lot of dots. There's a march within driving distance of you. Find it. Sign up. Recruit friends. Fill your car. This is the part where we show up & FIGHT. http://www.familiesbelongtogether.org pic.twitter.com/AA2h5WUM4G

      Tomorrow, I and tens of thousands of other people will be in DC, demonstrating at the White House and then marching to the Department of Justice. https://www.facebook.com/events/401815953659712/ … My favorite dot, though, might be this one.

      The protests against Trump's anti-family immigration policies have spread beyond our borders. Our map tool can't register/display events outside the US. But people are protesting in 16 other countries, too. #FamiliesBelongTogetherpic.twitter.com/ouIRd0QTMn

      There's a lot of news every day. Some of it is trivial. Some is a huge deal. Trump wants you to forget that kids are in cages. That his administration took thousands of kids from their parents, and hasn't reunited them. That they're building camps in the desert. We won't forget.

      Tomorrow, #WearWhite. Again: wear white. It's what the protestors wore yesterday at the Capitol. It's what they wore in Tornillo, Texas last weekend. It's the color we're using to link these actions together—and to channel historic social justice movements of the past.pic.twitter.com/PGaTqeonBP

          #WearWhite was an idea suggested by @paolamendoza. She wrote, in an email to fellow activists, “White has incredible historical relevance. In 1917, 5,000 black women and children wore white to demand that their lives mattered,” https://theconversation.com/100-years-ago-african-americans-marched-down-5th-avenue-to-declare-that-black-lives-matter-81427 …pic.twitter.com/ZFhKRJ0fLD

          “and the Mothers of the Disappeared in Argentina wore white headscarves.” These were mothers in Argentina whose children had been “disappeared” by the government--women who faced down a dictatorship. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mothers_of_the_Plaza_de_Mayo …pic.twitter.com/fB4pRm8Q4T

          You can see it. The power of choosing a color, claiming it, making it visible, linking far-flung protests and actions throughout the country. Drawing on the history of struggle for a better world. March. Tomorrow. #WearWhite.

          I’m with ya’ll but am feeling like I’ll be shunned if I show up wearing another color. Am I the only person that doesn’t own white clothes and can’t really afford to buy an outfit to participate in a protest?

          I doubt you'll be shunned. Just show.
