I am absolutely desperate to get her free.

Mary Lummis's avatar

Shaun- Migrant Justice in Burlington VT was critical in obtaining the release of Mohsen Mahdawi here in VT. I wonder if they would have any strategy ideas to help secure Leqaa’s release. My heart breaks for Leqaa her family and all those touched by this cruel administration and our inability to create a humane immigration system.

Let me see

Sami Hamdi said what got him free from ice detention in SF and stopped his extradition to Texas was daily updates by his family getting picked up the national media.

That makes sense. The harder we press them the more difficult and consuming it will be to maintain this behavior. If we can organize for not just Leqaa’s case but create a system it could be groundbreaking. But we have to start with getting her free.

Whitney's avatar

Please keep us all informed on how we can find Leqaa Kordia’s path home. This is unacceptable and a reminder of the spread of hateful practices in the genocidal places such as Israel. Palestine needs more than our attention and freedom. We need a massive call to action for involvement from all angles so there is no place for cases like this to be left hidden.

Just like every ICE worker being held accountable in every way legally possible, these cases need to be investigated and prosecuted. In every way possible.

Humanity can be so brilliant and powerful depending on the motivation. In her name, Leqaa Kordia, may we find peace and justice for all those wronged.

I'm so terribly sorry for the loss you're feeling, and the fear and worry. No one should ever feel that helpless, and NO ONE should be in ICE "detention." (Concentration camp.)

Please let us know if there's a legal fund. I don't have a big audience, but I'll do what I can to amplify her plight. This is one more in a long series of disgusting, horrifying moves those terrible people have made.

Shaun King's avatar

Stay tuned.

How can we call all the Imams in Texas ( there are many) to put pressure on their Congress people and Senators to intervene. So cruel.

Shaun King's avatar

I will see.

Please keep us updated. This is so disgusting. I hate this USA so much 🤬

Shaun King's avatar

We all do. It's just awful.

Deidre A. Kellogg Ketroser's avatar

Holding her in the light, to fight the darkness. This is so shameful. This is not America. 🥀

Shaun King's avatar

Thank you my friend.

Jo's avatar

Thank you for keeping informed - this is heartbreaking and beyond words. Shaun thank you for the hard, tireless work you do to keep us informed. I have to believe as we continue to join and act, we will make a difference. For what else is there. Thank you.

This needs some new eyes on this person.

787794 – I am devistated to read about this woman's condition. She may very well die. And it will be the U.S. Government's fault. WE ARE NO LONGER A DEMOCRACY! Trump and Co. are to blame. Hate and racism abound in our country now, and I am both disgraced by it, and furious at our lack of humanity. DOWN WITH TRUMP, ICE, and the. Republican Party.

They will kill her as an example. Nazis always do.

Marsha Gildin's avatar

What can we do, Shaun, as a community, to respond, pressure, support, assist Leqaa and her family????????? Please keep us posted and offer any suggestions/details/direction that might help.

Bruce Allen's avatar

Why don't you tell us what can be done fo help her?

Carm's avatar

I fully support the immediate release of Leqqa Kordia. This administration and Secretary of State Marco Rubio are directly responsible for this ongoing injustice and must be held accountable.
