The LUCE Hotline *works*

ICE/DHS agents were derailed from detaining an individual when a bystander called in the stop to LUCE.

Even just peacefully and visibly documenting and reporting activity can effectively disrupt. 2/
Flyer with text reading: LUCE Hotline Works BROCKTON: Agents stopped someone on side of street and were approached by the verifier, who was on the phone reporting the incident to LUCE. They tried to persuade the verifier to get off the phone and not call it in. UNABLE TO GET THE CALLER OFF THE PHONE, THE AGENTS LEFT THE SCENE. Think you see something? Call the hotline: 617-370-5023

Heads up Cantabridgians: be on the lookout for a stickering and flyering campaign for an anti-trans organization called "DI-AG" ("Democrats for an Informed Approach to Gender").

The sticker reads: DI-AG.ORG DEMOCRATS FOR AN INFORMED APPROACH TO GENDER The logo shows the letters "DIAG" in light blue, with the I written to look like a tall orange lighthouse shining out a light pointing to the right. Close-up detail of the sticker in the previous photo: DI-AG.ORG DEMOCRATS FOR AN INFORMED APPROACH TO GENDER Logo is the letters DIAG in light blue, with the I written to resemble a tall orange lighthouse shining a light out to the right.
