I am a Human Being. We are The People!
Uprising Tomorrow Jin Hongshan sold his company, house, car and all valuables, took his wife and two children, by Turkey in Europe to Ecuador, went through Colombia, Panama, Honduras and Mexico to Texas, and was later sent to New York. With the help of Wan Yanhai, the president of the Labor Family Association in Flushing, he contacted his elder brother Jin Hongwei. Because he was not informed in advance, Hongwei was also in a difficult situation. He helped Hongshan’s family rent a room in Newark, which was shared with four undocumented families. 19 people shared a bathroom, which was very crowded. Mike, a Venezuelan who lived with him, was wandering around the street when he ran into a group of people fighting after drinking. He also joined in the fight and was caught by the police. Mike was arrested twice for sexual harassment and theft two months ago, and this was the third time. The police sent Mike to the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The next day, ICE came and took away everyone in the room. Jin Hongshan's family was taken directly to Newark Liberty International Airport and sent to a United Airlines flight to Shanghai. The plane was full of deported Chinese. Before boarding, each person was given three packs of Master Kong instant noodles and two apples as snacks. Hongshan could not eat the instant noodles, and couldn't even swallow the soup. When the stewardess asked him to fasten his seat belt and prepare for takeoff, he completely collapsed. He was wondering where his family could stay when they returned to Shanghai in such a cold weather as he did not have even a penny after he had gone through so much hardship with his wife and children! He burst into tears, and his wife and children also cried wildly. Everyone in the cabin was crying. The plane entered the runway at this time and took off quickly. The passengers leaned back and couldn't make a sound. When the plane stabilized, someone opened the curtains and saw the Hudson River in New York winding southward in the snow, which was contrary to the dream they pursued. People were completely crazy. They cried and rushed to the emergency exit to open the exit door. This scared the stewardess. The flight attendant was helpless. The captain immediately shouted: "Please don't open the emergency exit door. If you open it, everyone will die. I will take you back to New York safely." The plane immediately turned around and landed at LaGuardia Airport. All passengers were sent to Flushing. Jin Hongshan contacted his roommate and his linemate. Black friends found civil rights leaders in New York, and everyone realized that this was not just a Chinese issue. So they contacted Democratic New York Congresswoman Grace Meng, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and other important figures, as well as LGBTQ organizations. The leaders unanimously decided to hold a protest march tomorrow. Starting from 125th Street in Manhattan, the Main streets of Flushing or any place where 20 people can gather, march towards City Hall, Times Square, and the Brooklyn Bridge! The slogan of the uprising is: I am a Human Being! We are The People!
