Over 20 ICE operations were confirmed across Southern California on August 21, with nearly 30 people taken from vehicles, homes, workplaces, and public spaces, including a violent 4 a.m. raid near San Manuel Casino and mass detentions at car washes and Home Depots. Disturbing incidents included suspected impersonators abducting a woman in Long Beach, masked agents seizing a woman at an Oxnard bus stop, and reports of detainees held in overcrowded, freezing conditions with only minimal food.
And why saying "Free Palestine" isn't antisemitic.
On day 76 of ICE raids, violent arrests were reported across Southern California, including a boy beaten and hospitalized in Huntington Beach, a man taken outside a prenatal clinic in Huntington Park, and multiple detentions near schools, car washes, Home Depots, and workplaces from Beverly Hills to East L.A. Community impact is mounting, with businesses like Lupita’s Bakery reporting a 40% sales decline, while federal prosecutors indicted Adrian Andrew Martinez under charges his lawyer says are politically motivated and amplified by fearmongering.
Volunteer over fear. Even when things feel hopeless, scary, and distressing, it is important to focus on what you can do and start where you are.
ICE raids across Southern California targeted multiple sites, with detentions reported in Cypress Park, Oxnard, Whittier, Fullerton, Rancho Cucamonga, Costa Mesa, Santa Ana, Bakersfield, and other locations, including incidents near schools and courthouses that left families shaken. Meanwhile, community groups demand the release of a high school student taken in Van Nuys, celebrate the reunion of another detainee with family, and Anaheim launched a new website to track ICE activity.
