🚨 RALLY ALERT: WE’RE CALLING ON OUR COMMUNITIES TO SHOW UP!

One year after the Allston Car Wash ICE raid, we are coming together to stand with the workers, their families, and everyone separated from their loved ones by immigration detention.

One year later, we have not forgotten. And we will not stop organizing.

We’re calling for an end to detention and deportations, an end to local collaboration with ICE, and permanent protections for all immigrants.

📆Friday, November 6, 2026
🕛6 PM
📍40 Armington St., Allston, MA
Plaza in front of the Jackson Mann Community Center

Bring your signs, your friends, and your voices. Let’s show up for our neighbors!

Can’t make it? You can still support the workers and families affected by the raid through the link in the flyer.

WE KEEP US SAFE.
FREE THEM ALL. BRING OUR PEOPLE HOME.

🚨ICE OUT OF OUR COMMUNITIES🚨

Yesterday in New Bedford, surrounded by community members, organizers, and partners, we stood together to demand an end to ICE raids, family separation, and the fear these operations are creating across the South Coast.

We are calling for the release of detained community members, real accountability from elected leaders, and an immediate end to these operations.

Our communities deserve to live in safety, with dignity and freedom.

This unjust immigration system tears families apart and leaves an empty chair where someone we love should be.

We refuse to accept that fear and separation are our communities’ future. We will keep organizing, standing with our neighbors, and fighting for the freedom to live without being torn from those we love.

We belong to one another. We belong here.

BLANCA BELONGS HERE💛

Yesterday, we showed up for Blanca. Hundreds of community members, faith leaders, organizers, neighbors, and partners stood outside the Burlington ICE Field Office as she walked into another check-in surrounded by the strength and love of her community.

Blanca completed her check-in, and her application for a stay of removal was filed and pending approval. As we await a response this temporary relief is not a lasting resolution. We know Blanca. We know the life she has built here, the people who love her, and the community she calls home. She should not have to keep fighting for more time in the place where her life is rooted.

No one should have to carry this uncertainty alone. We will keep standing with Blanca and keep calling for a lasting resolution that allows her to remain with her community.
To every community member, faith leader, organizer, neighbor, and partner who showed up for Blanca and continue to show up every day for our communities, thank you.

Blanca belongs here. It is time for a permanent resolution.

🚨 URGENT ACTION FOR BLANCA 🚨
Eleven months ago, hundreds of us showed up in Burlington to stand with Blanca, and our collective power helped secure a one-year stay of deportation. Now that year is up, and Blanca has once again been ordered to report to ICE.

ICE is counting on us to go away and forget. We refuse.

Our hearts are with Pierre Damas Bel’s family and loved ones. We hold their grief, honor their courage, and stand beside them. We are angry that his pursuit of an education and a future became something an immigration system could destroy.

Pierre’s story is part of a much larger reality facing hundreds of thousands of immigrants whose lives have been thrown into uncertainty by the end of Temporary Protected Status.

Seeking safety and building a future should never be treated like a crime. Pierre’s life mattered, his future mattered, and he should have had the chance to live it.

We stand with the thousands of immigrant families across Massachusetts and across our country. We will continue organizing toward a future rooted in safety, dignity, and belonging.

We grieve together. We stand together. We organize together. And we will continue fighting for a future where our families can live, work, learn, and move freely without fear.

Last weekend, LUCE and our solidarity partners held 24 hours of remembrance, resistance, and justice outside of the Massachusetts State House.

We began Friday at noon with a powerful opening program led by Emmanuel Damas’s brother, alongside community members directly impacted by the recent surge in immigration enforcement.
Throughout the evening and into the night, our community gathered in prayer, song, poetry, reflection, and collective care. Together, we created a powerful vigil filled with art, flowers, letters, and offerings to honor all those who have lost their lives under this administration and to demand that there be no more names.

In closing, we heard powerful testimony from immigrant leaders who call on other immigrant community members to set aside fear to fight for a better future.

Thank you to every LUCE hub volunteer and solidarity partner who helped sustain the vigil around the clock, including AFT Massachusetts, Boston Teachers Union, SEIU 509, Boston DSA, and the many other organizations and community members who stood with us.

We mourn every day. We organize every day. We will continue fighting until every person in Massachusetts and beyond can live with dignity, safety, and freedom.

This is what community looks like.
