Trans Q***r Pueblo community members have written, called, and visited 15 LGBTQ+ people detained inside Eloy Detention Center over the last 12 months — some who remain detained and others who have since been released. This is what they report.

Yari Márquez, a le***an woman living with lymphocytic leukemia while detained by ICE, sent us these drawings to give a visual glimpse into the realities LGBTQ+ migrants face inside detention.

People inside Eloy report medical neglect, isolation, discrimination, verbal abuse, denial of care, and constant fear. These illustrations document not only suffering, but survival, memory, and humanity inside a system built to cage and disappear our communities.

Through our Liberation Project, we continue supporting LGBTQ+ migrants inside and outside detention through letters of support, moral support, commissary funds, legal guidance, accompaniment, and post-detention aid. Our work is led by previously detained LGBTQ+ migrants who know these realities firsthand.

Local birthworkers of color are invited to join Rooted Health Front’s monthly learning series, designed to foster both professional growth and meaningful connection. Each session will be held virtually to support accessibility and community building ✨

This year’s theme centers on storytelling. We are exploring how narrative, lived experience, and voice shape care, advocacy, and leadership within birthwork spaces. Participants will engage in skill-building around sharing stories with intention, deep listening, public speaking, and strengthening communication practices.

Birthworkers will receive a certificate for each session attended 👀 Register today using the link in our bio.

You showed up. You raised your voice. Now what?
Real change does not stop at protest. It grows through sustained community action. Plug into local mutual aid efforts, invest in collective care, and support systems built by and for our communities.
This is not charity. It is solidarity!
This is how we build lasting power.
Join us in supporting our programs and getting rooted in your community.

**************
Estuviste presente. Alzaste la voz. ¿Y ahora qué sigue?
El cambio real no termina en la protesta. Crece a través de la acción comunitaria sostenida. Conéctate con redes de apoyo mutuo, invierte en el cuidado colectivo y fortalece sistemas creados por y para nuestras comunidades.
Esto no es caridad. Es solidaridad.
Así es como construimos poder duradero.
Únete a apoyar nuestros programas y a arraigarte en tu comunidad.

The death of Renee Nicole Good shatters us. Renee’s death did not occur in isolation. It is a key part of a long and violent history of harm caused by ICE and the broader system of policing, surveillance, and incarceration that it upholds. ICE is an institution rooted in white supremacy, racism, and colonialism. It continues to endanger, traumatize, and kill our People without remorse.
As an abolitionist organization, we reject the lie that cages, detention centers, and deportation create safety. They do not and never have. They are beacons of death, oppression, and terror. Renee’s death is a tragic reminder that these systems are functioning exactly as designed at the expense of those oppressed.
We refuse to allow this loss to be minimized, obscured, or forgotten. We call for accountability, transparency, and the immediate dismantling of ICE. We know for a fact that True safety comes from Community.
We honor Renee by recommitting ourselves to the fight for abolition and collective liberation. May her memory strengthen our determination to build a world where no one is disposable and no institution is allowed to steal lives in the name of the law..
We Will Never Stop Fighting. We will never stop believing. Because We Have Nothing To Loose But Our Chains.

Sincerely,
Arizona Democracy Resource Center
