There was pushback. People formed rapid response and migrant support networks, blockaded and occupied facilities, blocked vans with human walls, attacked and boycotted financial sponsors, protested outside the homes of ICE officers, provided legal support and material aid to detainees, etc. In one particular wave of arrests ICE only kidnapped I think less than 10% of their target number and admitted themselves that it was because of popular resistance
Yes, the ICE operations were a clear predecessor to this and people really shouldnât be as surprised as they are, but pretending that resistance to these fascist policies is smaller than it really is is nothing but demoralizing. It gives people the impression that itâs too late, that theyâre all alone, that no one is standing with them in solidarity
But weâre fighting. We always have been, and we always will as long as injustice exists. And we need your help!
