Sharing the history they erased.
Centering truth, justice, and equality.
Learning, unlearning, and teaching along the way.
If we don’t redesign the system itself, the suffering just continues under a quieter administration.

Reform isn’t enough. The system has to be completely rebuilt.

Anything less is choosing comfort over accountability….again.

Sources include reporting from Reuters, AP, The Guardian, and ICE disclosures.
If you know of a missing name, please reply with a public source.

Deaths are undercounted by design: names released late or never, post-deportation deaths excluded, street killings not tracked.

It is likely people are missing from this list.
If you know of someone I missed, please name them so they can be added. 💔

Killed because of ICE (not in custody):

39. Silverio Villegas González Oct 12, 2025 Shot and killed by an ICE agent in Franklin Park, IL, after dropping off his children at school. DHS claimed he used his vehicle as a weapon; later bodycam and surveillance video contradicted that account.

ICE does not count deaths after deportation, even when detention caused the collapse.

38. Randall Gamboa Esquivel: detained by ICE, health collapsed in custody, deported in a vegetative state, died Oct 26, 2025 in Costa Rica.

31 people died in ICE custody in 2025 alone.
ICE’s deadliest year in more than two decades.
Names matter.

This thread includes people who died:
• in ICE detention
• during transport
• during raids
• while fleeing ICE
• after medical collapse in custody
• after deportation caused by ICE neglect

If ICE caused the conditions, it counts.
