Rogers Park Against ICE
Do you hate ICE?
Us too! We are building a coalition of businesses in Rogers Park who oppose ICE, their presence, and the harm they do to our communities.
We are using this network to bring folks together to address offer more trainings, supplies, and gathering spaces. We also want to publicly share what businesses oppose ICE in Rogers Park.
The only requirement for businesses to sign on is that those with physical locations put up a sign that makes clear ICE is not allowed.
If you’re looking to host such trainings or gathering spaces, please keep reading!
The coalition is growing!
Trainings
The first event we are hosting will be a protester health and safety training (including how to treat tear gas + pepper spray) on December 11 facilitated by Ujimaa Medics. We have capacity for 30 participants and will share more information soon.
Gathering Spaces
We are also envisioning more spaces for folks to come decompress and not be alone. Whether after patrol/verifier shifts or on days we’re taking off to rest, we need to be listening to our bodies and our nervous systems. This is heavy and difficult to hold alone.
If you are a healer or mental health professional who would like to hold such space but need support (venue, registration management, supplies, etc.) please fill out our form below.
Request for Partnership
If you’d prefer to share this information on a secure channel, you can message Jes on Signal at @jfds.59.
