Below in black writing on a white background reads “New York plays a key role in the deportation machine. New York’s complicity includes making New Yorkers targets for ICE through criminalization, enabling ICE kidnappings, & more. Join New Yorkers fighting for their own criminalization & deportation for a speakout against New York’s enabling of deportations, & in support of their pardon campaigns.” to the left are logos for “Survived and Punished”, The Bronx Defenders” and “Center for Constitutional Rights”

 

New York plays a key role in the deportation machine, despite branding itself as “progressive” and “welcoming of immigrants.” New York’s complicity includes making New Yorkers targets for ICE through criminalization tactics such as stop-and-frisk policing, enabling ICE kidnappings through correctional officer collusion with deportation officers, allowing ICE to secure deportation orders against immigrants while they are imprisoned and unable to fully defend themselves, and more. This event brings together New Yorkers for a speakout against their home state’s complicity in the deportation machinery. They will also speak about their individual campaigns to secure pardons to ensure that ICE can’t piggyback on New York’s criminalization processes to permanently exile them from their homes.
