ICE is the regime’s private army — at least that’s what they signaled in the “Big Beautiful Budget” when they funded it at levels equivalent to Italy or Israel’s military budget. Resisting ICE is a moral imperative on humanitarian grounds, but it is also a practical necessity: what they get away with against non-citizens today, Trump threatens citizens with tomorrow.
From Whistle-Resistance to subtler defiance, we collect resources here. Learn how to video-tape a detention, or get inspiration for spreading the word and documenting ICE’s bad behavior. ICE are cowards: where people organize and resist, they leave quickly. They were in Charlotte N.C. for less than a week, after 600 people showed up for trainings, 30,000 students walked out in protest, and someone slashed their tires in the middle of the night. (We do not, of course, encourage illegal actions. This site “keeps it green” with legal resistance.)
Gestapo-like abductions are happening wherever you are. Bring attention to this fact with signs documenting where people have been snatched. Use chalk, stencils, yellow flowers or other markers to let passers-by know an atrocity occurred here, where they live.
If you are a white American, it’s time to decide if you’d really hide Anne Frank. Don’t worry—what you need to do is easier than that, and it’s still legal. Start with some simple steps and work your way up to being a temporary hideout. [YELLOW ACTION]
