    Declaración de FIRE EDITORIAL: Nicaragua 12 Workers and oppressed peoples of the world unite! workers.org Vol. 60, No. 26 June 28, 2018 $1 Migrant rights movement can Stop deportations, arrests By Teresa Gutierrez People all over the U.S. are up in arms with righteous indignation. From every corner of the country, from every sector of the population not in line with Trump’s racist ideology, the people are saying “No!” to the cruel and inhumane treatment of migrant children and their parents. This protest is excellent news, as the crisis created by #45 at the U.S./Mexican border merits an all-out, an- ti-capitalist, revolutionary response. The time for half measures is over. The question, however, is will the current movement be enough to stop Trump’s fascistic war against the tens of thousands of workers fleeing for their lives? Will it be enough to reunite migrant children with their families? Can this movement against the crisis at the southern border extend to recognizing the need to demonstrate solidarity with migrants from Africa, Asia and the Fight ICE Middle East? Only time will tell. But unless the movement WWPHOTO: BRENDA RYAN 8 June 24, New York City. Reclaim Pride contingent sparks resistance.
