It was Friday, June 6, and the rent was due. As soon as she finished an errand, Imelda Carreto planned on joining her family as they gathered scrap metal to earn a little extra cash. Her fiancé, Julio Matias, and 15-year-old nephew, Carlos, had set out early, hitching a trailer to the back of their beat-up gray truck. Shortly after 8 a.m., Carreto’s phone rang. It was Carlos, telling her an officer with the Florida Highway Patrol had pulled over the truck on Interstate 4 near Tampa. The stated reason: cracks in their windshield. But Carreto was worried. She knew Florida police were collaborating with federal immigration authorities.

Children account for about half the population in Gaza, where the median age is 19.6 years.

The SanctionsKill campaign is inviting health workers around the United States to sign our letter to the US government urging it to stop the use of unilateral coercive measures (“sanctions”) because they are as deadly as armed conflict and primarily kill children. The letter will be presented to the US Congress and Executive Branch in early 2026, and will be the subject of various campaign activities, including a December 3 webinar described below. The letter has already been signed by some prominent health workers

US Inequality Is Way Past Revolution Time

November 14, 2025 Lee Camp, Substack. Educate! Capitalism, Children, Class Struggle, Inequality, Poverty

One would think that perhaps the greatest benefit of being a cog in the wheel of a bloodthirsty, predatory, wholly unaccountable, rapacious global empire is being rich. Not rich in an Elon Musk / Monopoly Guy kinda way but rich in a not languishing in poverty kinda way. …But this is not true. A large percentage of Americans never get to touch the spoils of hegemony. “Over 40% of the U.S. population—including 48.9% of children—is considered poor or low income.” You read that right. According to a new Oxfam report, half of all American children live in poor or low-income homes. …HALF.

Lincoln Heights, CA — In the early hours on November 4, an ICE raid took place at the Cypress Park Home Depot in Lincoln Heights. After the first sweep, more agents returned to do another. Only this time, Centro CSO members and other members and organizations with the Community Self Defense Coalition had arrived to protest the ICE presence. “ICE knows time is not on their side when conducting kidnappings,” said Centro CSO member and Teamster Sam Carrera. “Within minutes there were around 50 rapid responders at the Home Depot. Some folks posted at every parking lot entrance, equipped with whistles and walkie talkie radios.

Children First: A Campaign To Reunite 66 Venezuelan Kids With Their Parents

August 24, 2025 William Camacaro, COHA. Organize! Children, Immigration, Kidnapping, Venezuela

One of the casualties of Washington’s get-tough immigration policy is the plight of children separated by U.S. authorities from their parents. The political party of “family values” has caused needless trauma for these migrant children and round the clock anxiety for parents desperately waiting to be reunited with their loved ones. The Venezuelan government, which has a longstanding policy–vuelta a la patria–of assisting the repatriation of their citizens– has reported that at least 66 children have been illegally held in the United States since their parents were deported to Venezuela. At this writing the author has been unable to obtain information as to their circumstances or whereabouts.

Halt On Medical Evacuations Is A Death Sentence For Palestinian Children

August 19, 2025 Bilal Irfan and Alyssa Seliga, Mondoweiss. Educate! Children, Gaza, Health Care, Israel, Palestine, Trump Administration, Wars and Militarism

The U.S. State Department’s decision this weekend to halt all visitor visas for people from Gaza, which includes the medical-humanitarian visas that have brought injured children to American hospitals, will cost Palestinian lives. Officials say this process will be subject to a “full and thorough review”. For a child with infected burns or a deep trauma wound, a pause is a verdict on their life. The freeze did not arise from new intelligence or any novel identification of problems in the temporary visitor visa pathway. It followed a social-media panic with the circulation of mischaracterized videos of injured children arriving under the care of a U.S. nonprofit being labeled as a “security threat,” rhetoric amplified by political allies. The State Department then announced it was stopping visas while it re-examines procedures.

Gaza Flotilla Ship ‘Handala’ Sails To Challenge Genocide Of Palestinians

As the genocide of Palestinians continues with the daily massacres of hundreds of starving people being targeted and killed by the Israeli military as they come to attempt to get food, another ship of the Gaza Freedom Flotilla coalition “Handala” is sailing to bring attention to the criminal actions of the State of Israel and its leadership. While President Trump, his cabinet and the US Congress meet with the International Criminal Court (ICC) designated war criminal Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, the small ship named Handala and a group of 18 participants is in final preparations for another mission to break the illegal Israeli naval blockade of Gaza and end the genocide.

On Monday, June 30, Venezuelan United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV) Deputy Jorge Rodríguez condemned the “kidnapping” of 18 minors in the United States. He showed photographs of several children who remain detained by the US government, despite formal requests for their liberation by Venezuelan authorities. Rodríguez demanded that the UN high commissioner for Human Rights, Volker Türk, and the UN resident coordinator in Venezuela, Gianluca Rampolla del Tindaro, at least speak out on behalf of the 18 minors kidnapped in the US. He also demanded the release of the 252 Venezuelans in El Salvador, “held against their will, without the right to defense, without due process, and in clear violation of international law,” Rodríguez added.

Study Finds Israel ‘Disappeared’ Nearly 400,000 Palestinians In Gaza

June 24, 2025 News Desk, The Cradle. Educate! Children, Deaths, Gaza, Genocide, Harvard University, Israel, Palestine, Report

A new report published by the Harvard database reveals that Israel has “disappeared” at least 377,000 Palestinians since the start of its genocidal campaign against the Gaza Strip in 2023. Half of this number is believed to be Palestinian children. The report was written by Israeli professor Yaakov Garb, who used data-driven analysis and spatial mapping to show how the Israeli army’s siege of Gaza and indiscriminate attacks on civilians in the enclave have led to a serious drop in its population. The 377,000 Palestinians who are unaccounted for due to Israel’s genocide are approximately 17 percent of the Gaza Strip’s entire population, which now stands at about 1.85 million. Prior to the war in Gaza, the strip’s population was estimated at 2.227 million.

Amid ‘Catastrophic’ Food Insecurity, Child Illness In Gaza Turns Deadly

May 27, 2025 Noor Alyacoubi, Mondoweiss. Educate! Blockade, Children, disease, Gaza, Genocide, health, Israel, Malnutrition, Palestine

Before the war, conditions like scabies and lice were manageable. Treatment required basic medication and hygiene. Now, overcrowding, shared living spaces, and limited hygiene supplies have made containment nearly impossible, the doctor says. Secondary infections, fever, and pneumonia are becoming more frequent. By mid-2024, recorded cases of scabies and lice surpassed 96,000, mostly among displaced children. Chickenpox cases rose to nearly 9,274. “Amidst the massive numbers of affected people, we suffer a serious deficiency in access to medicines,” a pediatrician in Gaza told Mondoweiss. “We’re forced to treat patients with whatever limited quantities we receive from the Ministry of Health.”

Natural Disasters Are Driving A School Crisis

Adrinda Kelly watched from New York as Hurricane Katrina swallowed her hometown of New Orleans in 2005. Floodwaters rose, neighborhoods disappeared underwater, and she felt a familiar ache deepen. Her family was safe, but devastation quickly compounded a painful realization: Black children were portrayed as disposable, and New Orleans’ education system was almost completely privatized. Black students’ test scores faltered. Almost two decades later and nearly 2,000 miles away, similar echoes reverberated in Altadena, California, as wildfires swept through Los Angeles County in January.
