Indivisibles,
The regime has had higher education in its sights since Trump returned to power -- and now it's unleashing ICE on campuses, too. Just last week, Ellie Aghayeva, an international student at Columbia University, was abducted from her university-owned residence by ICE goons posing as police officers looking for a missing child. That she was quickly released doesn't change the horror and unconstitutionality of ICE's actions.
Fascist regimes collapse if not propped up by their society's pillars of authority, from civil service to education. If that support isn't volunteered, the regime will demand it. The underlying purpose of ICE is to instill enough fear to trigger compliance; on college campuses, that violence is also intended to neutralize a source of authority that threatens Trump's own.
We cannot let Trump's secret police terrorize college students or kneecap higher education. Alumni, concerned neighbors, students' loved ones -- anyone with a connection to a campus community -- has a role to play.
Join next week's ICE Off Campus call to learn what you can do to keep the regime's secret police off campus.

The call is specifically geared toward folks who may not have a presence on a campus right now, so even if you’re not a current student, faculty, or staff member at a university or college, no problem. We’ll have ways you can help keep students safe from ICE terror.
From day one of ICE's assault on Los Angeles last year, the pro-democracy movement has been standing up, developing systems of defiance, and evolving our tactics as we learn from one another. College students across the country have taken part in anti-ICE actions, on campus and off; now we must stand with them and their institutions.
We hope you can join Indivisible, Stand For Campus Freedom, and our other partners on this important call.
In solidarity, Indivisible Team
