Horrific news. As we’ve seen over and over again, CBP cannot he trusted with the care of children. We must end the dehumanization and mistreatment of immigrants by people in power- the lives of children depend on it. https://t.co/QbZ1FBwDtG

8 year old Felipe Gomez Alonzo, from Guatemala, died on Christmas Eve at a New Mexico hospital.

He is the second child this month to die while in the custody of the United States Border Patrol.

May he rest in peace. pic.twitter.com/HNkEJ5kkYZ

I share my Friday charcoal/pencil drawing with you with a pain in my heart

He deserved better

SAY HIS NAME:

FELIPE GOMEZ ALONZO

It hurts me to draw this beautiful face, but this sweet boy needs to be remembered, forever.

He was 8, my daughter turns 8 next month.#SayHisName pic.twitter.com/tsITlVSitt

Her name was Jakelin Caal Maquín.
She was 7 years old.
She died in US Border Patrol custody.

People will say not to politicize her tragic death. People will say it was her parents' fault.

I say if we just forget her, then she died in vain. #SayHerNamehttps://t.co/c2jQKUCfGn
