CALL TO ACTION: Pack the court this Thursday at 2:30pm in solidarity with encampment activists facing felony charges from State AG Dana Nessel. This is a silent demonstration - wear your kuffiyeh and bring a friend!
Due to reports of heightened ICE targeting and surveillance at public court proceedings, we encourage noncitizens to not attend in person. A livestream link will be shared to tune into court virtually.

Activists in southeast Michigan are reporting FBI raids on their homes today (23 APR 25). The FBI is coordinating with Ann Arbor police. Activists are now gathering at locations assumed to be the next targets to protect them.
This behavior was seen in 2018, after Richard Spencer and the TWP were driven out of Lansing by anti fascists, whose homes were raided by the FBI in the months afterward.
They also did this during the George Floyd uprisings. This is classic FBI intimidation designed to suppress activism. Remember, when an agent knocks: https://nlgsf.org/if-an-agent-knocks/

Not confirmed, but word is that police released the arrestees and left the home when the community showed up in support of the targeted activists. Solidarity works!
