And that is the way American fascists have been using social media to try to splinter the black vote and dissuade Black Americans from coming to the defense of Haitian and Somali people. 1368116

I don’t think that they’ve done this before, the only time I’ve been to a protest at this building was on a weekend. I really don’t think these workers liked being shamed! 436494
