Noel shouldn’t have been taken by ICE in the first place. Now, even the US government agreed with his release from detention.
We made this possible together and we’ll continue to fight for Black queer and trans migrants, strengthening the fight for all of us to be free.

New York is home to vibrant Black immigrant communities that continue to be disproportionately impacted by detention, family separation, and anti-Black immigration policies. Together, we are building collective power to challenge these harmful partnerships, defend our communities, and demand that corporations like @Hilton STOP profiting from the criminalization of immigrants.

School leaders have a choice — either stand with students using their voices to make schools safe and inclusive for all, or stand by while their rights and safety are stripped away.
Which side are you on?

The #BreaktheICEMachine is knocking at Hilton’s front door.
While immigrants are being terrorized by ICE and the Trump regime, corporations ARE STILL cashing checks and fluffing pillows for the agents carrying out the violence!
No company gets to hide behind “business as usual” while our community suffers!
Break the ICE Machine means disrupting every part of the machine, including the hotels that prop up the ICE machine.
Please pledge today to join the campaign!

Card pull from our 3-Day of Training, Action and for a circle community…#7 Surrender
Art by Jeanna Chery
Surrender to the fire.
There are many battles and ways to fight.
You are invited to first recognize your pain, then control your anger from whatever you’re holding. Anger is healthy; it is when we are most enraged that we see change. However, if we hold anger inside us, it can cause us to implode. There’s a difference between uncontrollable fires that destroy everything around them and controlled fires that support release and cleansing.
Ori, please allor me to surrender to the fire inside me. May it release and cleanse all the things in my life that need this, so that I may see a brighter day.
Ase ooo
Today, we took action outside Hilton in Virginia as part of the @breaktheicemachinecampaign campaign and our 3-day convening demanding an end to corporate complicity in detention and deportation.
ICE continues to snatch our people, separate families, criminalize immigrants, and take lives and corporations like Hilton hotelare helping make it possible by providing shelter and accommodations for ICE agents carrying out these harmful operations.
That is why we are calling for a NATIONAL BOYCOTT of Hilton until they end all ties with ICE.
Hilton must stop housing ICE agents.
Corporations must stop profiting from detention and deportation.
Families should not be torn apart for profit.
We need investment in communities not cages, surveillance, and displacement.
The ICE machine does not operate alone. It relies on corporations, contracts, and institutions that quietly help sustain harm behind the scenes. We are committed to exposing those systems, organizing our communities, and building collective power to fight back.
No company should profit from the suffering of our communities.
