ICE shut down this Latino market without even showing up – Fear of immigration raids pushed the organizers of the Broadacres Marketplace in Las Vegas to temporarily close, shuttering a place at the heart of the city’s Latino community.

The xenophobe claims to be a defender of national values and community life, and yet they are the ones who seek to destroy vibrant and diverse communities while spitting on the pluralist foundations of America. The xenophobe is the enemy of culture and civilisation. They would have us renounce all the moral progress of the last three centuries, and subordinate the majesty of the human mind to an animalistic hatred of the other. While the liberal and the humanist work to build upon the works of man and establish justice, the reactionary and the xenophobe work tirelessly towards the moral and physical degeneration of our global civilisation.

They can have no place of power in the America we are going to build after this period of national humiliation.
