Remember Their Names and Faces
I did get down to L.A. City Hall for the 4th, but there weren't as many people as there had been on June 14 -- not even close to what we had then.
Nevertheless, Refuse Fascism set up shop with their truck in front of City Hall, and then put this display on the steps. (No cops to be seen this time.)
This collage was originally unveiled on July 3, on Olivera Street. The flyer given to me (by a lady from Refuse Fascism) says (in part), "Visual installation showing for the first time the Names and Faces of the human beings who have been kidnapped and detained, deported or been sent to offshore concentration camps."
The flyer goes on to say that "over 56,397 individuals are now in ICE detention centers. Over 139,000 people as of April 2025 have been deported, many without due process. Over 1,000 are currently crammed into detention centers outside Los Angeles, where people, including children, are being denied food, water and medical care."
The photos seen here are merely the tip of the iceberg, and it will only get worse once the "Big Beautiful Bill" kicks in.
