Members of Colectivo Huehuecoyotl, a group of Aztec ritual performers, cleansed the space around Chicago\u2019s Federal Plaza midday Saturday, greeting mother earth and calling for the end of injustices against immigrants. The \u201cprayer in movement\u201d was a reminder for the 40 or so protesters gathered in the falling snow in downtown Chicago that they were standing on indigenous land and U.S. citizenship is a settler-colonial concept.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n\n\t

The crowd gathered to protest the 20th anniversary of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, an agency created under the Homeland Security Act of 2002 following the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. Speakers went on stage to talk about their experiences with ICE, reflecting on the impact of two decades of family separations, incarcerations and deportations.<\/p>\n

The demonstration was organized by members of Organized Communities Against Deportation<\/a> and delegates from the Arab American Action Network<\/a> (AAAN) and United African Organization<\/a> (UAO).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
