There’s another emergency rally in NYC this morning—9am Foley Square.

Kristi Noem is going to NYC today to hold a press conference. New Yorkers are showing up in mass to tell her to get the f*ck out.

Join @handsoffnyc.bsky.social in the streets. It’s time to get loud and stay loud.

@handsoffnyc.bsky.social is training thousands of New Yorkers on how to protect their neighbors from ICE. Today, they are currently running two trainings in Brooklyn and the Bronx, both of which hit capacity because interest was so high.

This is the way, y’all—we protect each other, and we know it.

I was proud to join @thenyic.bsky.social with my fellow @riseandresist.bsky.social and @handsoffnyc.bsky.social comrades to call out the failure of the @nypd.bsky.social to protect New Yorkers from ICE terrorists.

The immediate and overwhelming community response that thwarted an ICE raid yesterday will be commonplace in NYC.

At HandsOffNYC.com we’re ensuring it by preparing New Yorkers borough by borough—block by block—on how to nonviolently respond to the unwarranted and unlawful terror ICE imposes on us.

As ICE Street Raids Ramp Up, New Yorkers Stock Up On Whistles
Taking a cue from Chicago, community groups have distributed thousands of whistles in recent weeks — a grassroots system people in other cities have adopted to help neighbors sound the alarm.

Today, thousands of people came out to events all across NYC—picking up and handing out materials to defend their neighborhoods from ICE. There were whistles kits & know your rights cards. People went to hundreds of businesses hanging signs of solidarity. Incredible feat by @handsoffnyc.bsky.social.
