You are correct. If you’re a citizen and a cop decides you’re one of “them,” good luck convincing them your ID is genuine. If you’re carrying it on you.
I’ve told my visibly brown partner that he has to have his passport on him at all times because that’s where we are, now. I’m hoping it will be enough.
Thanks. I think it was you I saw mentioning moving abroad; I hope that goes well for you and your family, too.
I just don’t understand people. My partner’s brother (also brown, also first gen) is a Trump-loving cop. I’m hoping we don’t have to rely on him for anything but I’m also weirdly grateful that he’s my partner’s brother because you bet your ass I will make it his business if anything happens to my partner; I still have the tiniest hope that brother would go to bat for him.
Yes, that’s me. Got my first job interview tomorrow. At 3:30 am. Apparently the Earth isn’t as flat as certain people on the internet would have you believe.
And yeah, there were a surprising number of brown people who voted for Trump, especially men. I don’t get it. He hasn’t been even a little secretive about what his plans are. They really don’t get that they could get caught up in this insane net of Trump’s.
Thanks! It’s not a job I’m dying for, so I’m thinking of it more as practice, but I will take anything if it means we can get over there in January and afford basic things like a home and food.
And that’s what he said when he was president last time.
This time?
Using the military to put undocumented migrants in concentration camps. Not even trying to hide that fact.

“Papers, please.”

I hope so for both of your sakes because it just takes one racist power tripping cop.

Good luck on the job interview!

And every time you have to show your documents to law enforcement, maybe this is the time you don’t get them back.
