MIDDLEBORO REVIEW AND SO ON

We’re demanding ICE accountability every day―because ICE’s abuses are ongoing and vicious. Last year was the deadliest year for people in ICE custody in more than two decades.1 And after an ICE officer killed Renee Good in Minneapolis, people organized more than 1,200 rallies and vigils across the country―including outside of the notorious ICE black site detention camp known as Alligator Alcatraz in the Florida Everglades. For months, our allies at The Workers Circle have been organizing a weekly Sunday vigil outside of Alligator Alcatraz, bringing hope, light, and song to those detained inside in inhumane conditions. Relatives of detained individuals have come to the vigils, to be as close to their loved ones as they can. Ninety-year-olds with walkers and wheelchairs come every weekend. Everyday people, activists, and faith leaders come week after week to shine a spotlight on ICE’s abuses. In order to keep up the momentum, The Workers Circle has been renting buses every weekend, bringing people from across the state of Florida. And after ICE’s killing of Renee Good, they rented four buses, bringing people to the Everglades from Miami, Ft. Myers, and beyond.   Hold ICE accountable and let ICE’s detainees know that we will not look away. Help fund weekly vigil buses to Alligator Alcatraz by splitting a donation between the Coalition on Human Needs and The Workers Circle today. SPLIT A DONATION ICE claims to be arresting violent criminals, but according to a report from the Cato Institute, of the tens of thousands of people currently in ICE detention centers, more than 73% have no criminal convictions.2 In fact, ICE is arresting more people with traffic violations than people with violent criminal convictions. CHN is helping people send hundreds of thousands of messages to Congress to rein in ICE, as well as promoting rallies and now supporting the Alligator Alcatraz vigils. We will not be silent in the face of ICE’s ongoing abuses. Help send more vigil buses to Alligator Alcatraz by splitting a donation between the Coalition on Human Needs and The Workers Circle today.
