"Americans should not stand idly as ICE and corporate enablers are building a surveillance machine unparalleled in its power and reach," writes De-ICE organizer Peyton Fleming. "Just as Americans distrust ICE, we should not trust companies, such as Flock and Boston Dynamics, that are helping them."
Dr. Carter Chamberlain, aka "The Flag Guy," is a neurodivergent nuclear fusion physicist. He'll speak on 10/7. We'll also hear from Burlington Select Board member Sarah Cawley for an update on inspecting the ICE facility, & Ellen Dussourd on De-ICE Signature Aviation. Photo credit: Henry L. Berman
In an unprecedented move today, Burlington ICE officials allowed Republican candidate John Deaton, challenger to @markey.senate.gov, to enter and tour the facility. Previously, ICE has denied entry to some Congresspeople, who have the legal right to enter & observe federal detention facilities.
Attendees at the 9/30 Bearing Witness standout were inspired by guest speaker Carol Rose, exec dir of @aclum.bsky.social. Rose spoke about the collective power of standing in dissent as a community against ICE & the injustice, illegality, & cruelty of the Trump administration.
