Today in Labor History April 26, 1862: Congress passed the Anti-Coolie Act of 1862. They also called it, "An Act to Protect Free White Labor.” The law was one of a series of xenophobic laws enacted specifically to block the immigration of Chinese to the U.S., particularly to California. Laws like this encouraged anti-Asian violence like the Los Angeles anti-Chinese riot of 1871, the San Francisco anti-Chinese riot of 1877, the Denver Chinatown riot of 1880, the Eureka Chinese expulsion of 1885, the Rock Springs Massacre of 1885, the Tacoma pogrom of 1885, and the Seattle anti-Chinese riots of 1886.

Today in Labor History April 25, 1886: The New York Times called the eight-hour workday movement "un-American" and blamed the "labor disturbances” on “foreigners." Other media prophesied that the eight-hour day would cause "loafing and gambling, rioting, debauchery and drunkenness."

Al Gore draws parallels between Trump and early Nazi Germany
#Guardian #News
Apr 22, 2025
#AlGore launched an attack on the #Trump #administration saying there were 'important lessons' to be learned from similarities with the early rise of #Nazi Germany. In a speech at a climate week event in #SanFrancisco, Gore said: 'We've already seen, by the way, how popular #authoritarian leaders have used migrants as scapegoats and have fanned the fires of #xenophobia to fuel their own rise to power, and power-seeking is what this is all about'

Everything is proceeding rapidly.

This is a very long thread, reporting on a hearing for Rümeysa Öztürk, the college student who was snatched by ICE on video.

I understand only some of it. What’s important here is that there’s a glimmer of hope. The ACLU is fighting for her, and the judge is listening. That’s monumental in the fight against fascism.

A U.S. citizen, born in the U.S. is one of dozens who just got an email from the government telling them to leave the U.S.

Humanitarian Parole is one of the legal programs allowing people to stay in the U.S. legally, but this immigration attorney was not in that program. She was born here.

"Again, DHS is terminating your parole. Do not attempt to remain in the United States - the federal government will find you. Please depart the United States immediately," the email read.
