Friend,
The holidays are approaching and it will be a time many of us will reconnect with loved ones (via zoom) and share meals with our household members. While we will share memories, good food, and laughs, many of us will also have tough conversations about politics, race and more. In our immigrant communities, for example, anti-blackness is very real. We know that our communities still have a long way to go - but proactively dismantling anti-Blackness is something that must start at home.
Friend, having these tough conversations can be draining, but they are important, which is why we want to share some resources we put together. Check out our Undocu Guide to Dismantle Anti-Blackness at Home in English and Spanish!

As a person your family and friends trust, you might be the best person to engage them into a constructive conversation that changes their perspective. Let’s continue to remind our non-Black loved ones that although our struggles as non-Black undocu immigrants intersect, being Black in Amerikkka comes along with added layers of policing, constant surveillance, and racism. None of us are free until we are all free. Our liberation depends on each other. It’s time to put an end to the injustices and prejudices. So let's continue to learn and share together!
If you know of someone who might benefit from this guide, please share!
