sunday, january 29th, 2017, 12:30pm PST. the reason i’m putting timestamp on this is because it’s a time sensitive issue and with any luck, will be an irrelevant post within a day.
so here goes nothing. one of my family’s friends has been detained. he had come to america with the intention of visiting his son, who he hasn’t seen in over a decade. once he got here, however, all of his documents were confiscated and he himself was deported to dubai with the promise that his possessions would be waiting for him there.
once he got there, however, he found that there were no documents, no luggage, nothing. he asked for a translator (he speaks farsi) and instead got physically assaulted. he is now being detained.
please, if any of you know ANYONE in dubai who can go to the airport and find him, MESSAGE ME. bonus points if they can be a pro-bono translator.
all he wants right now is a kind touch. he hasn’t been treated with anything but cruelty for the past several hours.
chi-miigwetch.
I doubt I’m followed by anyone from Dubai but
***BOOST***
I might be. Please share if you can. The concept of being suddeny sent to a country in which you cannot communicate with no advocates is terrifying beyond comprehension.
@angryblackgirlrants @thebibliosphere @vaspider you all have wide and diverse audiences, signal boost?
