resist + educate + organize
Hawai‘i J20+ came together on January 20, 2017, to act on shared concerns about the rhetoric, actions, and politics of President Donald Trump’s agenda. In 2021, we foolishly closed up shop thinking we were done. We have revived to fight Trump + the billionaires, AGAIN, and it is more urgent now than ever!

RESIST
People classified as “migrants” are in the eye of the fascist storm sweeping across the world. As Trump tries to put a tyrannical, authoritarian regime in place, ICE has sent out plainclothed, masked gunmen to grab our neighbors, co-workers, and friends and disappear them into private, for-profit immigration jails. Children are being torn away from their parents – again. Migrants are being deported to random countries paid by Trump to warehouse them. What is being done to migrants today is rapidly spreading to affect those of us classified as citizens. We must reject Trump’s efforts to divide citizens from migrants. We do that by acting in solidarity and crushing Trump’s ICE machine.
