Cellphone video captured the moving moment that friends and activists joined hands to foil the enforcement agents and allow the father and son to escape into their Forest Ridge home in Nashville, Tennessee's Hermitage neighborhood. Witnesses said the man and his son, who have not been named, had just pulled into their driveway at 8am on Monday morning, when Immigration Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents pulled up behind them. ICE had apparently tried to pull the suspected undocumented immigrants over, so they had driven back to their home. A four-hour stand-off ensued as the man and son refused to get out of their van, while the agents allegedly took it in turn to threaten and even offer to pay them to get out. 'You'll have to exit eventually,' an agent reportedly said.

Beto O'Rourke has compared President Donald Trump's recent campaign event in North Carolina to that of a Nazi rally. The 2020 Democratic hopeful called Trump a racist during an interview with ABC News on Monday. 'President Trump is a racist. What we saw in North Carolina last week was almost an impromptu Nuremberg rally,' O'Rourke said. He was referring to the president's rally last week during which Trump supporters repeatedly roared 'send her back' as he attacked Congresswoman Ilhan Omar. ๐ #fools

Shocking footage shows a British tourist running up to US rapper Future's bodyguard, who has his back turned, and punching him in the back of the head (right) outside Ibiza airport in Spain. The bodyguard crashes to the ground and another tourist then sickeningly stamps on his head. The Brits cheer in sick delight and shout mocking jeers at rapper Future (left), who walks away from the scene and into a crowd of people at the Spanish airport. It is unclear what caused the confrontation, but the rapper later said he had refused to pose for a photo with the tourists, because he was too tired after a flight, and they had reacted angrily. ๐ก #fools

Maduro blames opponents for 'electromagnetic attack' as Venezuela is hit by black outs. The lights went out across much of Venezuela, reviving fears of the blackouts that plunged the country into chaos a few months ago as the government once again accused opponents of sabotaging the nation's hydroelectric power system. The power in the capital went out after 4 p.m. (2000 GMT) Monday and immediately backed up traffic as stop lights and the subway stopped working during rush hour. โก๏ธ
America in the summer of 1919 ran red with blood from racial violence and yet 100 years later there is no national remembrance day and many people do not know it even happened. Hundreds of African American men, women and children were burned alive, shot, lynched or beaten to death by white mobs and thousands saw their homes and businesses burned to the ground. Branded 'Red Summer' because of the bloodshed, the period amounted to some of the worst white-on-black violence in U.S. history and violence erupted in towns like Elaine, Arkansas, as well as in cities such as Chicago. Researchers believe that in 10 months, more than 250 African Americans were killed in at least 25 riots across the U.S. by white mobs that never faced punishment. ๐ฟ #history
