How some individuals, families, and communities have come together to protect themselves, protect their neighbors, and fight back against ICE
On Monday morning, Immigrations and Custom Enforcement agents tried and failed to detain a man in a suburb of Nashville, Tennessee. According tofrom local news station WTVF, when the agents approached the man’s vehicle and attempted to block his exit, he remained inside his van along with his 12-year-old son. As the man and his son waited out the agents, who only had an administrative warrant and couldn’t remove him from the van, their neighbors showed up to deliver them food and water.
Another neighbor on the scene offered this: “I know they’re gonna come back, and when they come back, we’re coming back.” “They said, ‘We need to talk to you, can you come outside, can you open the door?’ I said, ‘Do you have permission to come inside my house, do you have a paper?’” she. “They said, ‘We’re not trying to come inside your house, we just want to speak with you.’ And I said, ‘No I’m not coming outside.” More agents returned a few hours later, she said, but her family remained inside. Eventually, they left.
