Abolish ICE ✊🏽 Mercado (Market)

The undoc+ (currently or formerly undocumented) community of Los Angeles is being wrongfully targeted by militarized mass deportations. Today, many fear leaving their homes to go to work or even get groceries. Countless individuals have gone missing, families are being torn apart, and our communities are no longer safe from persecution by the administration of this nation.

Abolish ICE ✊🏽 Mercado (Market) is the result of the arts community taking action beyond solidarity with undoc+ communities in LA. This event brings together artists and arts professionals to raise funds for undoc+ people.

100% of the funds generated will be divided equally between CHIRLA (Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights) and Inclusive Action for the City to support our community members who are most in need, from the families of people who have gone missing to the day laborers and street vendors who provide our city with nourishment and joy.

✊🏽 As long as even one of us is unlawfully targeted, nobody is equal under the law.
