It's good to see an effort to keep track of this. It would be great to have something like this for all the people kidnapped by ICE, not just the academics. But that would be a huge project, and many have probably been snatched and whisked away without the case becoming public at all. Is there a database behind this that people could contribute to if they know someone who has been abducted by the government?

Also, I wonder whether just listing the stated reason gives too much credence to it. They're all labelled terrorist sympathizers, and it's usually a lie or a very spun way of saying "they objected to Israel's genocide of Palestinians." Maybe the format could be updated with a link to some more balanced information about each case - a media article or a wiki page?

Resist: It's Time

We are still in this together, but "this" is going to be real different in the very near future. This demands a different kind of "we."

The French Resistance during Nazi occupation played important roles delivering downed Allied airmen back to safety, supplying military intelligence, and acts of sabotage.

The Underground Railroad is estimated to have brought 100,000 freedom seekers to safety between 1810 and 1850.

It's time.
