He saw a group of CBP officers, 4 vans, surrounding a group of what appeared to be 'mojados'; illegal border crossers.

They had them surrounded, sirens blaring, flood lights on them, guns drawn, with the group in the middle, on their knees, hands on the back of their necks, fingers interlaced.

Including in the group were many females, some of whom appeared to be 12 year olds at most.

My son guesses there were maybe 10 individuals in the group captured by our brave men in green.

I feel so much safer now.

Excerpt:

''We are a part of the memories of evolution
These memories carry knowledge
These memories carry our identity
Beneath race, gender, class, age
Beneath citizen, business, state, religion
We are human beings
And these memories
Are trying to remind us
Human beings, human beings
It’s time to rise up
Remember who we are''
