"mourn the lives lost to ICE and denounce ICE violence in our neighborhoods,"
"They are part of a pattern of ICE violence that tears families apart, devastates communities, and exposes the failures of systems meant to protect us - especially within immigrant communities."
"We come together to mourn, demand accountability, and call for ICE out of Massachusetts. When institutions fail, our strength is in one another."
A protest will take place in Boston at 2 p.m. at the JFK Federal Building in Government Center organized by LUCE Immigrant Justice Network of MA to mourn lives lost to ICE and denounce ICE violence. The protest is one of dozens planned across Massachusetts after the fatal shooting of 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good by a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent in Minneapolis. Authorities report Good was shot three times as she attempted to drive away from agents who demanded she exit her vehicle while acting as a legal observer. The encounter was captured on video, witnessed by Good's partner, and occurred in a residential neighborhood about a mile from the site where George Floyd was killed in 2020, prompting hundreds to gather and broader protests nationwide.
