When the Feds Come to Your City: Standing Up to ICE
A Guide from Chicago Organizers
https://crimethinc.com/StandUptoICE
Are masked agents stalking your town, looking to kidnap your neighbors? Want to do your part to protect each other, but don’t know where to start?
We hope this guide will help you prepare to stand up to federal agencies like Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) as they attempt to abduct people from your community. It is based on the knowledge that an array of people have accumulated in Chicago over the past several months during “Operation Midway Blitz.”
As federal agents expand their assaults on communities across the country, it is crucial to share and build on these practices.
