United States: Organising to Resist Mass Immigrant Raids
Los Angeles County has declared a state of emergency in response to ongoing immigration raids by federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.
Grassroots activists and communities are organizing to resist these raids, which have caused widespread fear and desertion in many Los Angeles neighborhoods.
The Donald Trump administration’s dramatic increase in Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids has led to dozens of agents arriving in unmarked cars with rifles and bulletproof vests.
These agents often wear ski masks, do not display badges, and refuse to identify themselves, adding to the fear and intimidation.
- Undocumented workers are being handcuffed and thrown into rented vans.
- Neighborhoods that were once bustling with activity are now empty and deserted.
