Thanks for the invitation ❤️ and organizing

Solidarity Vigil for the Victims of ICE and EU Border Violence
– Thursday 15 January 2026 (The Hague) –

Time: 18:00 – 19:30
Solidarity vigil: 18:00 – 18:30
March: 18:30 – 19:15

Once, we knew what ‘’never again’’ meant.

But what does it mean today – when Renee Nicole Good, is shot in the head by ICE agents on 7 January? When Marie Ange Blaise, 44, from Haiti, dies in a Florida detention center? When Chaofeng Ge, 32, from China, is found dead in a Pennsylvania Processng Center with his hands bound – and it is called a ‘’suicide’’?

More than thirty people have died in ICE custody in 2025 alone – the deadliest year in two decades. Over 1,700 people drowned in the Mediterranean that same year. These deaths are not accidents. They are the outcome of a politics that becomes normalized when we remain passive – when we accept language that dehumanizes migrants and justifies violence through border patrol policing and state-sanctioned deportations.

And let us be clear: this logic does not only apply to the United States. It applies to the European Union as well.

Since taking office, the Trump administration has weaponized ICE to arrest undocumented migrants across American cities. The result: a surge in racist violence, families torn apart, and the highest number of deaths in ICE custody in twenty years.

Here in Europe, our representatives have embraced the same logic. They deploy border authorities to cut off migration routes, pushing people toward deadlier crossings. There is mounting evidence of direct harm – pushbacks by border patrol in the territorial waters of Greece and Italy, on the borders of Poland, lives abandoned at sea and in war zones. In 2024 alone, over 120,000 pushbacks were recorded at EU borders. These are not just moral failures; they are clear violations of the European Convention on Human Rights.

ICE kills a woman and calls it ‘’self-defence’’

The EU and its member-states lets people drown in the Mediterranean and calls it ‘’border protection.’’

Different places. Same logic.

The bitter irony is this: more policing does not make us safer. It is a cornerstone of far-right and fascist ideologies.

Let’s hope the leadership of Dutch climate movement who received grants for the purpose of inclusion, diversity, youth-led, global south, grassroots activism, women centered: are willing to adjust and change their minds.

Let’s hope we don’t have to ask the society at large to do it their due diligence and good governance policies for the reparations to

Let’s solve misunderstandings and/or any human mistakes. That’s part of the societal learning experience.

Yet we can’t be silenced anymore. We do need to change the language

Costs= indigenous peoples ❤️
Families, grandparents, parents, youth , students

Let’s hope the youth of all organizations aligned or the community building

Our request is based on reciprocity. We have been canceled already by just asking for due diligence

Stay tuned! We hope we can solve it ❤️

Indigenous Liberation Movement presents:
Indigenous Liberation Day - Young Elders Resilience 2025

On October 12th, we gather as Indigenous Liberation Movement to commemorate Indigenous Liberation Day. This day serves as a powerful reminder of our history, resilience, and the enduring spirit of Indigenous Peoples around the world. 12 October 1492, is the day that Columbus invaded our lands.

As we reflect on the impact of colonization, we also celebrate the strength and wisdom of Indigenous womanhood, youth and elders.

Indigenous women have been the backbone of our communities, guardians of our traditions, and leaders in the fight for justice and sovereignty.

Their voices and stories are integral to our movement, guiding us back to our ancestral values, knowledge, teachings, and sacred ceremonies.

We encourage Indigenous young elders to play a central part in our teachings.

We created an ancestral portal together for the past, present and future.

Since 2018 is Indigenous Liberation Movement organizing for 12 October. We invite all to support Indigenous Liberation Movement next year!

This is our collective video! Follow us and join our Indigenous Liberation Movement!

Thank you for your kindness, presence and sharing
