I've been listening to Passages: Artists in Solidarity with Immigrants, Refugees, and Asylum Seekers by Various Artists. 🎵

Genre/Description: protest songs folk rock indie
“…what the meaning of this border line that’s been forced into my mind…everybody talk about it like it’s the greatest line that humans could ever draw…”
– Lonnie Holley, from “A Border is Just a Space Between Two Lines”
Related quote I’ve been thinking about a lot lately:
“The ultimate, hidden truth of the world is that it is something that we make, and could just as easily make differently.”
– David Graeber, who I apparently need to read.
Album recommended by Benjamin Booker, who I’ve also been listening to a lot and has a song on the album.
I bought a digital copy, with proceeds going to American Gateways and Casa Marianella, and also donated to the following this morning:
Immigrant Rapid Response Fund of the Women’s Foundation of Minnesota
Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota
