Subject: [BMDC-announce] March on NEU - Abolish ICE!

 

Hi everyone! BMDC has endorsed an event being organized by Cosecha next Tuesday the 31st at Northeastern University. Here is the description:

 

"[Español abajo]

English:
Northeastern University has received $2.7 million from an ongoing research contract with ICE. The agency is also listed as an employer for Northeastern’s student co-op program. The university benefits from and provides services to ICE, making them complicit in the agency’s criminalization and dehumanization of the immigrant community.
Northeastern also directly contributes to the gentrification of Roxbury and other surrounding neighborhoods, displacing and breaking apart their communities.
We demand permanent protection, dignity, and respect for all immigrants and institutions such as Northeastern inhibit this through their complicity. Join us as we march on Northeastern University to demand that they end their multi-million dollar contract and student co-op program with ICE.
The collaboration of institutions like Northeastern makes the deportation machine possible. Abolish ICE!
This action is part of Movimiento Cosecha's Abolish ICE national day of action
Musical Instruments are welcomed and encouraged (drums, whistles, etc).

This will be a great event, and the struggle at Northeastern is something we should definitely take part in. Let's demand that they end the contract and abolish ICE!
