Impact Points
  • The ongoing military conflict between Israel and Iran has heightened tensions in the Middle East, potentially leading to increased discrimination and violence against marginalized communities, particularly those of Middle Eastern descent.
  • The detention of Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil raises concerns about the treatment of activists and the implications for civil rights and freedom of expression, particularly for marginalized groups advocating for justice.
  • The continuation of immigration raids and the detention of individuals in the U.S. highlights systemic issues of discrimination and the impact of policies that disproportionately affect immigrant communities, particularly those from Latin America and the Middle East.
  • The abandonment of the salmon restoration deal with Northwest tribes by the Trump administration reflects a disregard for Indigenous rights and environmental justice, further marginalizing Native communities in policy decisions.
