Chicano Latino Law Student Association at ASU launches a hotline to help people change their immigration hearings to online, by phone, in light of ICE arrests

Posted inDemocracy, Immigration, local, news
Over the last several months, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has targeted and arrested individuals as they leave or attempt to attend immigration court hearings. This sends a deeply troubling message — that those who attempted to follow the legal process may be placing themselves in harm's way. These tactics risk undermining trust in the legal system and may deter people from pursuing lawful avenues to resolve their immigration status.

Protesters crowd downtown Flagstaff as part of nationwide ‘No Kings Day’ rally

Posted inDemocracy, Diversity, Education, Events, Immigration, local, news
FLAGSTAFF — With some local media reporting a crowd topping 3,000, Flagstaff residents and Northern Arizona visitors alike turned out in mass for one of the largest rallies in the city in recent memory during the "No Kings Day" mass protest held Saturday, June 14 in front of Flagstaff City Hall. The large crowd came in spite of near mid-summer temperatures approaching 90 degrees, and added personal safety vigilance as a result of deadly political violence earlier in the day in Minnesota. The protest nationwide was organized by the 50501 movement with the local effort hosted by Indivisible Northern AZ. Opponents of the Trump administration crowded the sidewalks from starting at Wheeler Park and Humphreys Street along Route 66 around the curve to Milton Road, filling the grassy area up to the Flagstaff City Hall sign. A sizable crowd of protestors also filled the opposite side of the street up to the Flagstaff Train Depot.
