RELEASED!! A friend of my adult child was detained on the farms in Camarillo, California yesterday [View all]

He is a professor, a US citizen, a protestor. Along with maybe hundreds of others, he is missing today. One farm worker just died after being chased off of a roof. Support organizations and lawyers have not yet been given their locations. We are in serious trouble.
