I’m going to post pictures later but we had a great turnout at the block party/open streets yesterday. It was mainly young families and young voting age Latinos. And I didn’t see y’all there…

Can’t wait to see y’all today! Thank you to our sponsors!

Just thinking about how Mexican people are culinary masters. You see them in the back of the kitchens making sushi, Italian, French, southern, etc. God I love us.

This is the last I will say about this. I did not lobby my colleagues to vote no on this commissioner but I had A NUMBER of them come up to me after. If I were on this commission, I would be reflecting on my position before coming back to rules. Rules is not a pass through anymore.

It has never been about doing it “the right way.” This is fascism. This is why David Benton still needs to resign. He thinks this is okay.

The arrest of the SEIU CA President & protesters is a disgrace to our country — and part of a terrifying trend local electeds have also been facing. We stand for First Amendment rights. We stand for democracy. We stand with David Huerta & call for his immediate release.

If you see Tennessee Highway Patrol and unmarked cars behind, it is more than likely ICE. This is how they’ve been conducting detentions this week. Report to music city migra watch at (615) 933-8409. Get best photos/videos possible of vehicles, plates, agents and give nearest intersection/landmark.

If you’re able, please consider supporting local Latino-owned businesses along Nolensville Road, Antioch Pike, Harding Place, and nearby areas. Many in the community are feeling afraid right now, and these businesses are experiencing a noticeable drop in customers.

Someone ask Governor Lee why I have confirmed sightings of ICE knocking doors at one of my apartment complexes. Are these the criminals he was talking about? An entire complex? It’s racist and it’s targeted.

Belonging to La Brigada @nashvillesc.bsky.social is such a comforting thing during these times. The group isn’t just about soccer. The members are picking up food for those who are scared. They are lookouts on roads for ICE raids as they drive to work. Esto es familia.
