URGENT RELEASE:

Police Arrest Youth at Richmond BART Station;

Youth were going to protest ICE raids & deportations in San Francisco

Contact: Andrea Cristina Mercado, Mujeres Unidas y Activas: (510) 205-3684

NNIRR just received a report that police arrested youth en masse at the Richmond BART Station. They were on their way to San Francisco to join a protest against ICE raids and deportations.

This is a blatant attack on immigrant communities to silence and intimidate communities who are demanding justice and human rights and end to all raids, detentions and deportations.

Police harassment and arrest is a violation of our right to freedom of assembly and speech. Richmond police or BART police must be held accountable and all youth who were arrested must be immediately released without charges.

Please contact Andrea Cristina Mercado at (510) 205-3684 for more information on the youth-led community protest against ICE in San Francisco and the reported arrests of youth in Richmond .

Roll Back the ICE Raids!
End the Detentions & Deportations!
Justice & Human Rights for All!
