#NOTECHFORICE WORKSHOP
2020-07-14 18:00 - 20:00 UTC
Technological advances have revolutionized the world around us, as a society, we are capable of coordinating many tasks on our cell phones with just the click of a button. Unfortunately, these same technologies that are supposed to make the world a better place are also invading our privacy and extracting our data, often without our consent. This had led to an ever-expanding state of surveillance.

Mijente has organized against migrant prosecutions and deportations, and technology has always come in the picture of aiding the acceleration of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations. Tech companies like Palantir, Amazon, and others are building the tools used to surveil, incarcerate, and deport our communities. The Georgia Latino Alliance for Human Rights (GLAHR) has worked in the efforts to take back tech by continuing the fight against a state of surveillance in the state of Georgia, and we continue mobilizing even during this pandemic.

The NoTechforICE campaign aims to create a free future for our pueblo by taking back TECH. GLAHR understands that the fight is a constant struggle; that is why we cordially invite you to join us Tuesday, July 14th, from 6 pm to 8 pm for an informational workshop to learn more about the #NoTechforICE campaign from Jacinta Gonzalez, Senior Campaign Organizer at Mijente. Jacinta has led an intense fight to take back tech and has participated in informational workshops, including a “surveillance state” workshop with the Immigrant Legal Resource Center. Most recently, Jacinta, alongside Mijente, hosted a workshop that included Naomi Klein and Edward Snowden. Jacinta is an inspiration and powerful woman that teaches us how to free our future and take back tech.

To Our Loved Ones: Honoring Pedro & Others Who Died in Detention
2020-02-14 12:00 - 14:00 | Atlanta ICE Field Offices, 180 Ted Turner SW, Atlanta, Georgia, 30303, United States
WHAT:
Press conference and ceremony to honor the life of Pedro Arriago-Santoya and others who have died in immigrant detention

WHEN:
Friday, February 14
Press Conference 12:00 – 12:30 pm EDT
Graveside Service 1:30 – 2:00 pm EDT

WHERE:
In front of the Atlanta ICE Field Offices
180 Ted Turner SW, Atlanta, GA 30303

Atlanta, GA — On January 24, 2019,
Pedro Arriago-Santoya became the 5th person to die in Immigration and
Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody in the state of Georgia in the last 3
years. Mr. Arriago-Santoya was incarcerated at Stewart Detention Center
in Lumpkin, GA where a history of medical neglect and use of solitary
confinement have contributed to immeasurable suffering and several
deaths. Other people who have died in ICE custody in Georgia include:

Roberto Medina Martinez, March 2009
Jeancarlo Jiménez-Joseph, May 2017
Atul Kumar Babubhai Patel, May 2017
Yulio Castro-Garrido, January 2018
Efrain Romero De La Rosa, July 2018

Reports suggest Pedro Arriago-Santoya
was 44 years old at the time of his death, was born in Mexico, and went
by several other names including Fabian Valdovinos-Salgado, Antonio
Valdez-Baldera, Fortino Mendiola, Pedro Santivilla-Arroba, Pedro
Santoya, and Pedro Carillo-Santos.

Several months after his passing,
advocates with Project South and Georgia Detention Watch discovered
that, unable to locate Mr. Arriago-Santoya’s next of kin, ICE had buried
his remains in an unmarked grave outside the City of Atlanta without
any public announcement or service. On Friday, February 14, 2020,
immigrant rights groups will hold a press conference at the Atlanta ICE
Field Offices to call for the end of immigrant detention and the
abolition of ICE. The press conference will be followed by a graveside
service to honor the life of Mr. Arraigo-Santoya and others who have
suffered in ICE custody.
