## Caption

They kidnapped a child. He is 5 years old. His name is Liam. Masked, grown men that are strangers to this boy put their hands on him, pulling him out of a running car. The gripped the top of his little spider man backpack, the one he carries to pre-school, and directed his tiny body around like a hostage. They used him as bait to try to entrap more family, while the masked “adults” hid just out of view. They would not release him to family, or neighbors. No, rather than prioritize the safety of this child, they traumatized him and STOLE him. And agency that DOES NOT KEEP RECORDS OF DETAINED CHILDREN STOLE ANOTHER CHILD. They kidnapped someone’s baby. This could be your baby. This could be my baby. This precious child is our baby, y’all. He is our neighbor. He is part of a beloved community. And he and his father are literally doing it “the right way.” They are here thanks to an active asylum case. There is no deportation order for them. Our country, our Constitution, swears to protect people like Liam. We are failing. He and his father have been stolen and shipped to Texas. To a cold detention center with appalling conditions for humans. All so the criminal in the Oval Office can enrich his friends, who own the camps. All so he can hide his crimes against other children. We cannot abide by this. We cannot lose our promise, our potential.

Now is the time. Make the phone calls. Join the shutdowns. And the walkouts. And the picket lines. Offer what resources you can. Do not give up. James Baldwin taught us, “The children are always ours, every single one of them, all over the globe,” and the final line rings more true than ever: “I am beginning to suspect that whoever is incapable of recognizing this may be incapable of morality.” Follow your moral compass and do something. This will take all of us.
