SUMMARY:Defend DACA: No One Is Illegal! - ISO Meeting
DESCRIPTION:**Location: UNT Willis Library room  443.\nTime: Wednesday September 20 at 7 PM** \nThe Trump Administration’s decision to repeal DACA sparked a wave of action across the country. While many are fearful for their futures\, many are resisting the decision. This is an important moment for the immigrant rights movement in this country. We cannot not let DREAMers and other immigrants be pushed into the shadows. We must fight with them for protection.  \nAt this meeting we will discuss the history of DACA\, the impact of Trump’s decision\, and next steps for the struggle for immigrant rights. \nSuggested reading \nhttps://socialistworker.org/2017/09/07/we-cant-let-dreamers-be-driven-underground \nhttp://isreview.org/issue/105/immigration-policy-under-trump

SUMMARY:Dallas rally against DeVos & cuts to public education
DESCRIPTION:Over the next six weeks\, Congress will be focused on a new federal budget. Both President Trump and House Republicans have introduced budgets that drastically slash spending on public education by $9 BILLION – eliminating programs that have been critical\, particularly for low-income students and children of color. \nAt the same time\, they are proposing revisions to the federal tax code – revisions that increase tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans. The nation’s richest people stand to gain\, while our children and communities are thrown under the bus! \nBetsy DeVos\, the U.S. Secretary of Education\, is one of those wealthy Americans. \nDeVos\, like Trump\, has shown extraordinary ignorance and disdain for the lives of working class and poor families\, and most of all\, Black and Latino communities. We cannot allow the Trump/DeVos agenda to move forward. \nThis Dallas event is part of a coordinated day of action nationwide! \nFor more information\, contact Empress Lindsey\, (469) 203-0496\, mlindsey@organizetexas.org.

SUMMARY:ISO Forum: Fight the Right! Build the Left!
DESCRIPTION:** LOCATION: UNT Curry Hall\, room #204 ** \nThe Trump administration’s war on working people has emboldened the far right\, leading to a ride in violent attacks by extremists and open rallies by the alt-right and the KKK in Berkley\, Portland\, and Charlottesville. Democratic politicians have failed to pose a real alternative to Trump and the right\, instead saying we need to hold back on demands that would alleviate the immiseration facing working people\, like taxing the rich\, single payer healthcare\, and a living wage. \nAt the same time\, the opportunities to build the left and socialist organizations are the best they’ve been in decades. We need to mobilize a mass movement to defeat the far right on the streets. And we must construct a left political alternative that raises people’s hopes and builds solidarity against the right’s attempts to scapegoat the poor\, minorities\, women\, immigrants\, and people of color for rising inequality and social despair.  \nSocialism – the politics of a democratic working class movement from below – is the revolutionary answer to right wing populism and neoliberal centrism. Socialist organization must be a central component of this new left if we are to effectively challenge Trump the far right and fight for a better future.

SUMMARY:Walkout Against Racism and SB4
DESCRIPTION:Trump and the Republican party have normalized and encouraged racist thought and action\, especially against immigrants. In Texas the Governor has signed SB4 into law. SB4\, known as Texas’ “show me your papers” law allows police to stop suspected undocumented immigrants and empowers local police officers to act as ICE officers\, thereby legalizing racial discrimination and cultivating fear and anxiety among immigrants.  \nThe attack on immigrants has been accelerated since Trump has been elected\, and the sentiment against them has been fueled by xenophobic and nationalistic rhetoric\, the kind that excites white supremacists and Nazis to hit the streets and violently harass people of color\, immigrants\, and left-wing protestors. Fascists have been given fertile ground to grow their forces. We must confront them when they become emboldened enough to show their faces\, wherever they may be. \nWe must also fight against the institutional racism that SB4 is the most recent attempt to double down on. The fight against white supremacy and fascism must also be the fight for immigrant rights. We support the call for a Walk-Out September 1st. Together we can show Abbott that those who reject racism and will stand with immigrants are in the majority. And the bigots and racists are in the minority. \nStudents at UNT and TWU have called for their campus to become Sanctuaries\, but with SB4 this is would be outlawed.\nThrough walkout we are showing our University that we will not be divided and we will show up for our immigrant neighbors. Laws have been on the wrong side of history and our government has been on the wrong side of history. Our tax dollars need to be going to better things than walls\, and training and paying local police to racially profile. Walk out with to show your solidarity with immigrants.

SUMMARY:SB4 Court Injunction Rally
DESCRIPTION:Chief U.S. District Judge Orlando Garcia issued a temporary injunction on SB 4 confirming the obvious: SB4 is anti-immigrant and anti-democracy. This injunction blocks the worst parts of the law – forced collusion with Immigration and Customs Enforcement\, the ability of local law enforcement to inquire about immigration status\, and the power of democratically elected officials to choose how they want to engage with federal immigration officials. \nRAICES\,  Texas Organizing Project\, Unite Here\, Move SA\, SA Pro Immigrant Coalition\, SA Free Speech Coalition\, and Mi Familia Vota will be hosting a rally and press conference tomorrow morning in front of the federal courthouse to talk about the recent court ruling against SB4! \nAll of the cities and counties who joined the lawsuit\, all the law enforcement officers who spoke out against SB 4 must take this as a sign that their action was worth it. We now call upon them to adopt local policies to stop the collusion between police and ICE.
