ICE Raids & Hyper Policing Increase in SE Ohio
Homeless camp sweeps and ICE on every corner. NATO + FIFA ain't helping.
International events are being hosted in Ohio all summer.
NATO came to Dayton May 22nd – 26th
Homeless camps have been violently cleared in Springfield and Dayton, routinely for the past month.
FIFA’s World Cup is in Cincinnati, June 15th, 18th, 21st, and 25th
Today (6/18) I’ve gotten texts about ICE raids in three places in the city.
*****UPDATE? CORRECTION*****
Teranga was not raided, neither was the house near it that ICE was intending to arrest someone at. Three young men were cuffed on the corner in front of the restaurant, then later released. ICE left, and went to lurk at the local Kroger.

Yesterday (6/17) my spouse saw ICE lurking around an on-ramp to 75.
I don’t know what to say and have no flourish to go with this. It’s just happening, all across Ohio and Kentucky we are doing our best to respond and protect our communities. Hyper policing in increasing in all corners of the state, but not in a way that I think people are expecting. Even with these major events we have received little to no coverage of the mounting fascism in all sectors of Ohio.
We aren’t just a fly over state.
