WEEKLY Starting on SAT 12/20 1-2 pm All over the country, ICE agents are targeting immigrants in and around Home Depot, and these atrocities are happening on Home Depot’s watch, on its properties, with its silence. The Home Depot has not publicly resisted or condemned these raids or demanded that the Administration stop assaulting and abducting people on and outside its properties. With its silence and inaction, Home Depot has become ICE’s passive partner. In order to show up for immigrant community members and defeat authoritarianism, we must engage in the dual strategy of electing people who will stand up to Trump, and engaging in noncooperation (also known as civil resistance). Movements with no civil resistance actions, stopping democratic backsliding only happens 7.5% of the time. With a civil resistance added to the movement, that percentage goes up to 51.7%! In addition to this, we need to run civil resistance campaigns that hit the power holders where it hurts! When we do symbolic actions like one day protests and vigils, which are useful in their own way, power holders can easily ignore them. When we engage in actions that cost money like a boycott, cost elected leaders their seats, or stop business as usual, they are far more likely to respond. So we engage in noncooperation because we must impose real and tangible costs to powerholders' bottom-lines! Suggested signs: ICE out of Home Depot We Ain’t Buying it - stand with immigrant neighbors! If you work with ICE, we freeze our spending
