People’s Tribunal

February 4, 2018 @ 12:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Let’s put ICE on trial! Join us at the NWDC to shine on a light on everyday human rights abuses at home.
#ICEontrial #DefendtheDefenders

Come to our 3rd Annual People’s Tribunal this Sunday, Febraury 4th, noon-4 pm at the Northwest Detention Center (1623 E J St, Tacoma, WA), where we will gather and hold Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) accountable for its culture of secrecy and systemic abuse. We ask for your full support and to join in our collective resistance. Now more than ever we all need to choose which side are we on: For liberation? Or for fear and suppression? We ask you to join us and fight for liberation of all our people.

Other actions will be taking place internationally in support:
-February 2nd: Protest at the US embassy in Mexico City, Mexico (12-2pm)
-February 3rd: Action at the Citizen Assembly against Racism, Valencia, Spain (6pm)
-February 5th: Protest at US Embassy, London, UK (5:30-6:30pm)

The tribunal is one of a series of coordinated People’s Tribunals across the country as a part of the #ICEonTrial campaign with Detention Watch Network. The campaign comes with a rise of retaliation by ICE against activists, as the agency is emboldened to be less transparent, unaccountable and act with increased impunity under the Trump administration.

Hasta la victoria siempre!
