Eight Things You Can Do to Stop #ICE
2025-02-11, via #CrimethInc
"The #Trump administration is paving the way for #MassDeportations by building new #PrisonCamps and invoking the #AlienEnemiesAct, which was used to justify the internment of #JapaneseAmericans during World War II. Motivated by nativism and white nationalism, Steven Miller and other officials are attempting to ethnically cleanse the United States, while tech and prison companies profit on lucrative government contracts and corporations continue to exploit immigrant labor. Knowing that mass deportations will inflict devastating costs, Trump has chiefly been concentrating his efforts in cities like Chicago and Denver that are governed by his political adversaries.
"Nonetheless, people are getting organized. Communities across the US are mobilizing rapid response networks that can respond to raids and support those targeted by #StateViolence. Students across the US are staging #walkouts; people are holding mass #demonstrations and fighting back against deportations.
"If we fail to stand in solidarity with those targeted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) today, the same infrastructure of repression will eventually be turned against others, as well. An injury to one is an injury to all!
"Do your part to melt the ICE."

![The image shows a black and white photograph dated April 1942 in San Francisco, California. It depicts several individuals gathered closely together during what appears to be an official setting or event related to the war relocation authority's activities.
In the center of the photo is a man wearing glasses and dressed formally in a suit with pinstripes. He has dark hair pulled back neatly and seems to be bending slightly towards someone out of view, possibly engaging in conversation or providing information.
Around him are other men who seem engaged in similar interactions, suggesting that this might have been an event where people were being briefed about their accommodations during the war relocation process. Some individuals appear focused on papers held by one another, indicating a possible exchange of documents related to housing assignments.
The text at the top indicates that it is from San Francisco, California and provides context for what appears to be wartime activities involving Japanese American citizens or those with ancestry connected to Japan who were being evacuated due to internment policies. It mentions an individual receiving information on evacuation details for war relocation centers during World War II.
Additional annotations include a code "LG-OBH-5630A" and mention of the photographer, Long, likely Dorothea Lange given her involvement in documenting this period through photography.

![The image depicts a bustling store with numerous customers engaged in various activities such as browsing, shopping, and handling merchandise. The setting appears to be during World War II, judging by the date mentioned on the photo which is April 1942. In San Francisco, California, Japanese American customers are present within this establishment operated by an individual of Japanese descent who is facing eviction from their home due to wartime restrictions.
The store seems crowded with goods displayed around and above counters where staff members interact with patrons. The atmosphere suggests a sense of urgency or normalcy amidst the backdrop of impending war-related evacuation policies for people of Japanese ancestry, as indicated by the text on the photo which refers to them being placed in War Relocation Authority centers during their stay.
Notably, an American flag is visible hanging above one side of the store. The overall composition captures a slice-of-life scene with individuals from different walks of life converging within this commercial setting.

![The image is a black and white photograph dated April 2, 1942. It depicts two women sitting on steps with several children around them in what appears to be an urban setting. The woman on the left wears glasses, dark-colored clothing, including a coat, gloves, and a hat or cap; she has short hair. She is holding onto one of her legs while resting against a railing. Next to her sits another woman wearing a light-colored dress with stripes and shoes that have white socks protruding from them.
The children around the women vary in age and attire but all seem to be dressed in casual clothing suitable for warm weather, suggesting it might not be cold outside at this time of year. One child on the left is seated next to one woman while another sits beside a kneeling figure; their ages range approximately between three and ten years old.
The background features an urban setting with buildings that suggest a residential area or perhaps close proximity to some institutional building such as a school given its appearance. The photograph has been marked by hand annotations, including date "April 26th '41" at the top left corner followed by various comments regarding the women's situation and context.

![The image depicts a black and white photograph taken in San Francisco, California during April 1942. It shows two men seated on chairs indoors with various packed items around them, including suitcases and large bags possibly containing personal belongings or supplies for relocation.
One of the men appears to be focused intently on an object he is holding between his hands, while the other man sits in a more relaxed posture, looking away from the camera. The room has wooden floors and contains various pieces of furniture such as tables with items like coffee cups, suggesting it might be part of a living area or common space.
In the foreground are large bags labeled "War Relocation Authority," indicating that these men may have been moved to internment centers during World War II due to their Japanese heritage. The photograph is titled and annotated on its border, mentioning San Francisco's location in California for April 1942 and describing a scene of two friends playing a final game before being evacuated.
The image captures the somber mood of people impacted by wartime policies as they navigate uncertainty about where they will be relocated to during their internment. The presence of household items suggests that these individuals are attempting to preserve some semblance of normalcy amidst displacement and upheaval brought on by government action related to war-time measures concerning Japanese Americans.

![The image depicts a group of seven individuals, likely members of the Shibuya family, engaged in weeding on a field within an agricultural setting. This historical photograph is dated 1942 and captures them working amidst a vast expanse of farmland with sparse vegetation scattered across it. The people are dressed casually, wearing light-colored shirts and trousers or skirts, indicating warm weather conditions typical for California during the summer months.
They appear to be focused on their task as they kneel or squat over patches in the ground where plants have been cultivated but not yet harvested. In the background stands a rural landscape with some buildings that resemble farm structures and possibly residential houses, under an expansive sky suggesting it is midday due to the brightness of light casting short shadows.
A handwritten caption at the top provides context for this historical moment: "Mountain View, Calif., 1942 ([?]). Members of the Shibuya family weeding a field on a ranch which they owned prior to evacuation of persons of Japanese ancestry. The evacuees will be housed on War Relocation Authority centers for the duration of the war."
