I've unfortunately been witness to a lot of the chaos described in this statement from my time working for Sprocket. Many attempts were made to push for better systems. There was a repeated promise in meetings that this was just the concerns of a few artists, and that everyone else was happy.
Cartoonists United@cartoonist.coop · 3mo agoCreators at Silver Sprocket have released a public statement regarding longstanding concerns with the business practices of the company which alleges issues around payment of royalties, poor treatment of staff, and lack of professionalism.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo and Joan Sebastian Guerrero weren't murdered because of car pursuits. They were murdered because the men driving those cars felt comfortable recklessly killing. None of this ends until we shut down ICE completely.
NBC News@nbcnews.com · 3mo agoBREAKING: ICE orders officers to stop pursuing people in vehicles after fatal shootings in Maine and Texas, according to a current senior DHS official and two former senior DHS officials.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.
The ICE murder of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo deserves the same fury as Renee Good and Alex Pretti
Justice for Lorenzo Salgado Araujo

Please. They murdered someone in his car. If we treat this as less of an atrocity than the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, then we are doing ICE’s violent work for them.
