Salah Sarsour: A Pillar Taken, A Community That Will Not Yield

April 12, 2026 Dr. Hatem Bazian, In These Times. , , , ,
There are people you meet in the struggle for Palestine and justice who leave a mark not because of titles they hold or platforms they command, but because of who they are — quietly, consistently, and without asking for anything in return. Salah Sarsour is that kind of person. And the fact that he is sitting tonight in a detention facility, torn from his family and his community by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents who pulled him over with no legitimate cause, is an injustice that demands that every one of us speak. I first met Salah over thirty years ago, when I was beginning to organize for Palestine on a national level and found myself visiting the Muslim community in Milwaukee.

Judge’s Order For ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ May Shape Legal Access At ICE Jails

April 12, 2026 Renee Feltz, Truthout. , , , ,
When Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) started sending people to a new tent-based jail nicknamed “Alligator Alcatraz” deep in the Florida Everglades last July, it indicated a shift toward using quickly opened soft-sided structures and converted warehouses to hold thousands of people in chain-link fence cages with no access to a lawyer. “It was kind of a black box,” Paul Chavez, the director of litigation with the Florida-based Americans for Immigrant Justice, told Truthout. “Attorneys would drive out there to ask to see their clients and be turned away at the gate by armed guards.”

Protecting Our Cities From ICE Will Require A Regional Approach

April 8, 2026 Nikki Fortunato Bas, Next City. , , ,
Like many of you, I was grief-stricken watching the fallout of the Trump administration’s attack on Minnesota. Too many of our neighbors were left living in the kind of fear that quickly makes its way through school drop-off lines and courthouse hallways and can keep someone from going to work or even seeking medical care. Yet we were also reminded of how neighbors can stand up for one another when communities are tested. From the Bay Area to Chicago, progressive local leaders are recognizing that no single city or county can meet this moment alone.

Nurses Forge Alliances To Protect Patients From Immigration Crackdown

April 5, 2026 Marianne Dhenin, Truthout. , , ,
After the House of Representatives passed bills to send $10 billion in funding to the Department of Homeland Security in January, the nation’s largest union of registered nurses published a demand that Congress abolish Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). “Nurses demand the removal of immigration enforcement agents from communities, the abolition of ICE, and accountability for this administration’s crimes against all residents of the United States,” read the January 23 statement from National Nurses United (NNU), which represents over 225,000 registered nurses nationwide.

Allegheny County Organizes Against ICE Kidnappings

April 5, 2026 Jay Arthur, People's World. , , ,
Pittsburgh—On Feb. 18, 2:45 p.m., dozens lined up to stand watch outside Turner Intermediate School in Wilkinsburg, PA. They were on the lookout for ICE, which had kidnapped a minor that morning, less than three blocks from the school.  Among the attendees was Amanda Barber, President of the Wilkinsburg School Board. “We were notified that there was ICE activity at a local corner store. When we arrived, we spoke with the crossing guard and two parents that were witnesses to what happened.” After hearing the news that morning, Barber mobilized the community.

Twin Cities Electrical Workers Build Solidarity

April 2, 2026  Gabriel Legierski, Mike Plante, and Peter Rachleff, Labor Notes. , , ,
For months, the country and the world have been watching Minnesota, where the Trump administration’s military occupation by ICE, Border Patrol, and Homeland Security has been met by a multi-faceted grassroots resistance. As rank-and-file electricians, we sought to involve our local unions in the campaign to push ICE out of the Twin Cities and to support our immigrant neighbors and fellow workers. In early February, three weeks after the murder of Renee Nicole Good and just eight days after the murder of Alex Pretti, 40 members of the Electrical Workers (IBEW) joined an “ICE OUT” potluck to talk about the occupation and its effects on working people.

ICE Wants Unpaid Volunteers; The US Military Is At A Breaking Point

March 31, 2026 Lee Camp, Scheer Post. , , ,
In a shocking revelation straight out of a dystopian satire, the Pentagon has quietly begun asking civilian employees to volunteer for the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Framed as a “critical support” opportunity, these emails treat immigration enforcement like firefighting—inviting ordinary citizens to sign up for unpaid weekend shifts to assist with ICE operations. Lee Camp’s latest episode of Unredacted Tonight exposes the disturbing reality: this is not harmless civic engagement—it’s a blueprint for “volunteer fascism.”

FBI Files Counter Government Argument In Texas ‘Antifa’ Trial

March 26, 2026 Adam Federman, In These Times. , , , , ,
Fort Worth, Texas—On the last day of testimony in the federal ​“Prairieland” trial — wherein nine activists faced charges related to a protest outside an Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention center — the government called its star witness back to the stand. Kyle Shideler, director of counterterrorism research at the right-wing think tank Center for Security Policy, had been key to the prosecution’s case that ​“antifa” — the loose network of activists defined by their opposition to fascism — is a violent, criminal organization bent on overthrowing the U.S. government.

At No Kings: Let’s Flood The Streets To Add Left Demands

March 25, 2026 Left Voice. , , ,
On March 28, No Kings and dozens of unions, community organizations, and left-wing groups across the country are calling for a mobilization under the slogan: No ICE, No War, No Kings. This cannot be just another mobilization; it must be a historic surge of millions so that Donald Trump and the Epstein gang hear us loud and clear. Trump and the Far Right were defeated in Minneapolis by the massive grassroots movement that brought about the end of Operation Metro Surge and the firing of Kristi Noem as head of the Department of Homeland Security.

Protesters Fill Capitol, Read Letters From Children Held In Immigration Custody

March 24, 2026 L. Cam Anderson, Unicorn Riot. , , , , ,
Saint Paul, MN — More than 100 people filed into the Minnesota State Capitol on Feb. 26 to protest the prolonged detainment of children in Immigration and Customs Enforcement facilities around the country. The crowd, led into the capitol building by the immigrant rights-oriented nonprofit Unidos MN to protest a legislative session, pooled into the second floor outside of the Senate Chamber as an array of speakers read letters sent by children detained in ICE detention centers in Texas aloud. The protest follows a recent trend in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detaining more and more children, the Associated Press reported.

Trump Has Detained Parents Of More Than 11,000 US Citizen Kids

March 24, 2026 Jeff Ernsthausen, Mario Ariza, McKenzie Funk, Mica Rosenberg and Gabriel Sandoval, Pro Publica. , , ,
The baby needed somewhere to go. So in the frantic hours before officers took her parents away to immigration detention, her mom turned to their pastor and his wife. As squad cars waited outside the family’s Lakeland, Florida, trailer home, she gave them a crash course in how to care for the 4-month-old. Briany, with her plump cheeks and full head of dark hair, wasn’t normally this fussy. But it was late that January night — around midnight — and she was still hungry. Her mom, Doris Flores, had tried nursing her to calm her down. It didn’t work. When she brought Briany to her breast, the milk wouldn’t come.

Minneapolis Protests Recall Long Lineage Of Women’s Peace Movements

March 24, 2026 Jodi Vandenberg-Daves, Waging Nonviolence. , , ,
Witnessing the powerful images of the protests in Minneapolis against state violence aimed at brown and Black neighbors during this intense winter of ICE escalation, I saw a beautiful sea of brave humanity. I also noticed a lot of women — singing, shouting their rage and putting their bodies on the line. The media is noticing, too. Right-wing media is so incensed by white women showing interracial solidarity in this anti-violence movement that they’ve gone on a crusade against “organized gangs of wine moms.” They seem entirely flummoxed by white women identifying with mostly non-white people the Trump administration seeks to dehumanize and brutalize.

The New Antifascist Consensus

March 23, 2026 Shane Burley, In These Times. , , ,
Rabbi Jessica Rosenberg, like hundreds of other residents and organizers in the Twin Cities, now keeps a strict schedule — at least every other day — of long volunteer patrols for vehicles driven by federal immigration agents occupying the region.  In about two and a half months, thousands of agents unleashed wanton violence across the country as they abduct an average of more than 60 residents per day; shooting, killing and firing chemical weapons at nonviolent protesters, and extrajudicially arrest preschoolers and send them across the country.

Doctors, Community Rally Against ICE, Law Enforcement Interference In Patient Care

March 21, 2026 Kate Regan, Fight Back! News. , , , ,
Los Angeles, CA – On Sunday, March 15, the People’s Care Collective (PCC), hosted an event on the steps of LA General Medical Center calling attention to the many violations of health and human rights that Los Angeles hospitals have enabled. ICE and local law enforcement have entered health care facilities trampling on the rights of immigrants and their families. Members of Centro CSO, Union del Barrio, Justice LA Coalition, California Immigrant Policy Center, and People’s Care Collective all spoke truth at the steps of power to demand that LA hospitals must stop prioritizing the interests of police, ICE, and insurance companies over protecting patients who seek care, regardless of their immigration status.

A Snapshot Of The Possible

March 21, 2026 Alex Han, In These Times. , , ,
In 2023, the Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party held a slim, single-seat majority in the Minnesota State Senate and control of the State House and Governor’s Mansion. It had been a decade since the last Democratic trifecta in the state, which like many similar moments of prior eras, produced only incremental wins for progressives and the Left. Since the financial crisis and Great Recession of the early Obama era, a core group of community and union organizers in Minnesota had been building what they called ​“alignment.” It would go beyond the traditional coalitions so many of us were used to — ones coalesced around a single fight but too pragmatic to inspire people to action.
