I wrote about the legalistic machinations+outsourcing wealthy nations use to sidestep their treaty obligations to asylum seekers, and how Title 42 exists with the UK-Rwanda deal; Mediterranean boat pushbacks; Pacific detention; etc.

🥳 Congratulations to Hans de Wit @HdeWitIHEd for receiving a special award from the Organization of Catholic Universities of Latin America and the Caribbean @Oducal for his work to support the internationalization of Catholic universities in the region!!

Wendy's increased its net income by 70%, pays its CEO 532X more than its median worker & is spending $100 million on stock buybacks. Now it's blaming the rising price of a Frosty on inflation? No. The problem isn't the Wendy's worker who got a 50 cent raise. It's corporate greed.

It's great to see Ukraine's neighbors welcoming refugees with open arms. But it's worth taking a look at why refugees from Africa and the Middle East haven't received the same treatment.

A giant of the civil rights movement & the fight for voter equality has passed.The work of Robert Moses was of singular importance in destroying a system that systematically denied black people the right to vote.We must honor his life’s work with action now to protect that right.

Bob Moses was a hero of mine. His quiet confidence helped shape the civil rights movement, and he inspired generations of young people looking to make a difference. Michelle and I send our prayers to Janet and the rest of the Moses family.

A9: In Massachusetts, 45 lawmakers have called on Gov. Charlie Baker to grant temporary licenses to health care professionals who are licensed outside the U.S. wbur.org/commonhealth/2020/0… @MIRACoalition #ImmigrantsThrive
Q9: Equitable policy is critical as the #COVID19 pandemic plays out. What are some ways immigrants and refugees are on the frontlines in the fight for inclusive policy solutions? What should people working on policies be thinking about? #ImmigrantsThrive

A11: Funders can provide much-needed relief to nonprofit service providers while looking ahead to longer-term #COVID19 recovery efforts. @GCIR offers recommendations on how philanthropic action can support immigrant communities: gcir.org/resources/gcir-covi… #ImmigrantsThrive
Last question. Q11: What’s one piece of advice you’d offer to the field – perhaps a funder, policymaker, or employer – on how to best support immigrant and refugee communities? #ImmigrantsThrive #COVID19

A10: How can we build back low-wage sectors of our economy even stronger? How can we create higher wages in restaurants, which already operate w/such thin margins? How can we advocate for higher pay in the healthcare sector, particularly for home health aides? #ImmigrantsThrive
Q10: What research is critical now? What might help support immigrant workers at the immediate moment, and once we have reached a “new normal”? #ImmigrantsThrive #COVID19

Q11: Talk to your people. If you’re an employer, talk to your workers. Ask them how they’re doing and advocate for their needs. If you’re an elected official, talk to your local nonprofits & if you can, directly to your constituents. #ImmigrantsThrive (1 of 2)

Recently, #COVID19 has shown that everyone must be part of the solution for it to work; this should be the case in times of non-crisis as well. #ImmigrantsThrive

A11: Don’t wait until a crisis to start support immigrants - involve them in all aspects of planning and policymaking. They will provide important insights to benefit all communities, not just the ones they live in. #ImmigrantsThrive

We are in a moment of unity building potential, but also headed into a period that’s ripe for zero-sum thinking to pit neighbors against each other – esp migrant/non-migrant. @WESPicks #ImmigrantsThrive @welcomingusa
