That’s a quote from John Lewis.
We are sick and tired of seeing little babies taken from their mothers. That's not right, it's not fair, and history will not be kind to us. As a nation and as a people we can do much better. We may have to turn America upside down to turn it right-side up. #KeepFamiliesTogether

A heckler showed up to #FamiliesBelongTogetherMarch at Big Spring Park in Huntsville, AL, got confronted, and brandished a firearm. Police apparently took him into custody. Witness tells me teens hit the deck, some cried and hugged after. Developing pic.twitter.com/a4mSh6ZwKH

More than 600 marches are planned today urging the Trump admin to keep migrant families together.
"I have literally never seen Americans show up for immigrants like this," said Jess Morales Rocketto, who works for the National Domestic Workers Alliance.https://t.co/LxqGuBRJYf

Before I spoke with Ivanka Trump at Bedminster, I drove by a group of about 200 protestors. One sign said: "My civility is locked in a cage / reunite families now”. pic.twitter.com/nmSuVo4zHc
