DESCRIPTION:On Saturday, May 5, 2018, immigrant rights activists, community leaders and 
 people who have been directly affected by the immigrant detention system 
 will gather in front of the West County Detention Facility (WCDF) for a 
 people’s tribunal to hold Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and 
 the Contra Costa Sheriff's Office accountable for their culture of secrecy 
 and systemic abuse.\n\nThe tribunal is one of a series of coordinated 
 people’s tribunals across the country as a part of the #ICEonTrial 
 campaign. The campaign comes with a rise of retaliation by ICE against 
 activists, as the agency is emboldened to be less transparent and 
 unaccountable and to act with increased impunity under the Trump 
 administration.\n\nJustice comes from the people!\nLa justicia viene del 
 pueblo!\n\nWhen: Saturday, May 5, 2018, 11:00 am - 1:00 pm\nWhere: Outside 
 of West County Detention Facility, 5555 Giant Highway, Richmond, CA 
 94806\nWho: CIVIC (Community Initiatives for Visiting Immigrants in 
 Confinement); Detention Watch Network; Pueblo Sin Fronteras; Interfaith 
 Movement for Human Integrity; Let Our People Go\n\n###\n\nCIVIC (Community 
 Initiatives for Visiting Immigrants in Confinement) is devoted to 
 abolishing U.S. immigration detention, while ending the isolation of people 
 currently suffering in this profit-driven system. We visit and monitor 43 
 facilities and run the largest national hotline for detained immigrants. 
 Through these windows into the system, we gather data and stories to combat 
 injustice at the individual level and push systemic 
 change.\nwww.endisolation.org\n\nDetention Watch Network (DWN) is a 
 national coalition of organizations and individuals working to expose and 
 challenge the injustices of the United States’ immigration detention and 
 deportation system and advocate for profound change that promotes the 
 rights and dignity of all persons. Founded in 1997 by immigrant rights 
 groups, DWN brings together advocates to unify strategy and build 
 partnerships on a local and national level to end immigration 
 detention.\nwww.detentionwatchnetwork.org\n\nPueblo Sin Fronteras is a 
 collective of friends who decided to be in permanent solidarity with 
 displaced peoples. For more than fifteen years, members of Pueblo Sin 
 Fronteras have been reaching out to the most vulnerable immigrants in the 
 United States and to migrants and refugees on the move. We accompany 
 migrants and refugees in their journey of hope, and together, we demand our 
 human rights. We provide humanitarian aid to migrants and refugees on the 
 move. Our dream is to build solidarity bridges among peoples and turndown 
 border walls imposed by greed.\nwww.pueblosinfronteras.org\n\nThe 
 Interfaith Movement for Human Integrity works to achieve an equitable, 
 inclusive and healthy society, culture, and economy where the most 
 vulnerable, disenfranchised and marginalized have equal opportunities and 
 access to the resources and tools needed to achieve a dignified quality of 
 life.\nwww.im4humanintegrity.org\n\nKehilla Community Synagogue’s 
 Immigration Committee holds a monthly multi-faith, one-hour protest on site 
 called Let Our People Go, on the second Sunday of every month. Let Our 
 People Go is a youth-and-elder-friendly, accessible action that opposes the 
 detentions/deportations and mass incarceration with activist debriefs, 
 music, art, stories and representation from different faith communities 
 (including faithful and faithless 
 humanists).\nwww.kehillasynagogue.org/immigration-committee\n
