August 30, 2019 - Day 30 - Journalists Against Detention Camps
Today marks day 30! of a month of actions in the street in front of ICE San Francisco. On this last day of actions led by specific groups and communities, journalists showed up with mics, cameras and speakers to shed neutrality and take a stand.
From the organizers:
"Calling all reporters, writers, photojournalists, videographers, producers, investigators and media makers to take a stand against the inhumane conditions of migrant detention camps and the institutional racism of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Patrol (CBP).
As journalists we are expected to remain neutral, unbiased. But we can no longer remain neutral in the face of atrocities committed against asylum seekers and undocumented Americans. It's time to speak out.
Members of the press have been a constant target of the current administration, especially those who cover immigration. Come stand in solidarity with us outside the ICE office in San Francisco.
Everyone is welcome."
