“The violence we are seeing did not begin on January 7. The only difference now is that more people are finally seeing it.”
Several hundred people marched in Boston Thursday night to protest the fatal shooting of Renee Good, a 37-year-old Minnesota mother, by a federal immigration agent as she tried to drive away from agents.
With glowing Park Street Church as a backdrop, close to a thousand people chanted, calling for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to leave local communities and for an end ro deportations.
The protest, organized by the Party for Socialism and Liberation, was the second in Boston after Good’s killing. In a quickly organized event, crowds also gathered at the Boston Common Wednesday evening.
“We are outraged. People all across the country, but also here in Boston, are sick of ICE,” Ximena Hasbach, a PSL organizer, told Boston.com. “We demand an end to ice terror. We demand justice for Renee. We demand the arrest of Jonathan Ross, the man who killed her.”
