ICE on Trial: A Kensington People's Tribunal
Friday, April 27th, 2:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m.
From the host, DRUM - Desis Rising Up & Moving
Join community members who have been directly affected by the immigrant detention system gathering for a people’s tribunal to hold Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) accountable for its culture of secrecy and systemic abuse.
The tribunal is one of a series of coordinated people’s tribunal across the country as a part of the #ICEonTrial campaign. The campaign comes with a rise of retaliation by ICE against activists, as the agency is emboldened to be less transparent, unaccountable and act with increased impunity under the Trump administration.
The charges against ICE:
-ICE is not complying with its legal obligations to migrants
-ICE does not live up to the moral and ethical standards of our community
-ICE oversees a detention system that is inherently inhumane, dehumanizing, and exploitative
