🚨 Another BREAKING video (regarding ICE in Chicago) that is not actually BREAKING.


Lots of misinformation going around about ICE in Chicago including this post below showing masked agents. IT'S AN OLD VIDEO.

Listen to local experts like @unraveledpress.com. Don't re-post clips without double checking to see if they are accurate. If you don't know for sure, don't share.

Date of the video is at the bottom

We can’t look at stuff like this and consign it to faded memory. It was terrible then and it’s terrible now. And certainly a precursor to what is to come.

We’re on the same side working the issues from multiple perspectives. There’s power there.

Knowing what IS happening now is important. There is nothing wrong with circulating that video if in the first sentence it is accurately described as from June.
