Protest/Rally

We will be outside the municipal courthouse Feb 17th at 7 am to let the judges know that ICE needs to be BANNED from making arrests on the property!

These folks are going to their appointments (aka doing things the right way) and ICE is taking advantage of this.

It is predatory, unethical, and Columbus needs to join cities around the county in banning this practice.

Sunday, February 1, 11:30am-12:30pm
Granville Street, Gahanna
From Blue Agave to Granville Library

Show up for a powerful demonstration for imimgrant justice. We will link arms down Granville Street -- standing in solidarity with immigrant families.

Feel free to bring signs, instruments, creative visuals and other artistic expressions of peace and solidarity. Stay as long as you can to help keep the chain unbroken.

ICE has been inflicting a reign of terror in our communities. They are showing us, in real time, what their power looks like: masked agents, raids in our neighborhoods, our families terrorized, and our allies and leaders targeted for standing with immigrant workers. This is not “enforcement.” It’s intimidation. It’s state violence designed to make people keep their heads down and accept the unacceptable.

Border Patrol will be recruting at OSU's career fair Tuesday, January 20.
Gathering at Brutus Buckeye Bench in the Ohio Union,
We are gathering to say that we will not let fascists recruit on our campus!

Confront DHS at your own risk.

 

We provide the signs, which have red lettering on a white background and say, “Stop the Cruelty.”  We all use the same sign to maximize visual impact. We are a silent protest, although we do talk among ourselves. We have a policy of not hassling ICE officers who wander by. Anger and resentment are Donald Trump's tools, they're not ours.

We mostly use street parking.

Everyone is welcome!
