July 4 weekend at Delaney Hall: How demonstrators spent their holiday protesting ICE
Demonstrators gathered outside Delaney Hall, an immigration detention center in New Jersey, over the July 4th weekend to protest ICE. They read Frederick Douglass's 19th-century anti-slavery speech and performed art criticizing immigration detention, including a performance by Shamz Azanedo that mocked ICE agents. Protesters, including members of Patterson BLM, highlighted the plight of detainees and criticized the Trump administration's immigration policies.
