Join a powerful grassroots movement in Denver protesting ICE kidnappings at courthouses and abductions nationwide. This Denver protest stands against new ICE detention centers in Colorado and shows how community involvement can support immigrants, friends, and neighbors.
This protest is organized by Solidarity Warriors, an action-focused group dedicated to resisting autocracy, theocracy, and oligarchy. Our mission is simple: restore empathy as a central value of government. We believe in nonviolent resistance, and this will be a peaceful protest.
Across the country, ICE has escalated its enforcement tactics. Agents now detain individuals—often with no criminal history—right outside immigration courts.
These aggressive tactics have created widespread fear and uncertainty among immigrant communities.
Denver has become an important battleground in the grassroots movement resisting ICE. The city has seen a surge in protests and community actions in recent months.
In June, about 150 demonstrators marched from a local park to the Aurora ICE detention center. This action was organized in solidarity with anti-ICE protests in Los Angeles. (Colorado Newsline).
In March, Denver’s beloved immigrant rights advocate Jeanette Vizguerra was detained by ICE at her workplace. Her arrest sparked outrage statewide. Governors, mayors, and community groups condemned the detention as politically motivated and a violation of due process. (AP News, Washington Post, The Guardian, Denver7).
These stories underscore the urgent need for community involvement. They show why local actions—like the Denver protest—are critical in standing up for immigrant rights and pushing back against injustice.
