On the 19th, about 250 protesters gathered to protest ICE’s brutal treatment of detainees in Times Square. The police reacted almost immediately, kettling them in and arresting ~60 protesters, mirroring the arrest of 26 protesters at a demonstration outside of the ICE federal offices earlier this week. Many of those arrested will be charged with disorderly conduct.
Multiple protests occurred in solidarity with Nigeria and the End SARS/SWAT movement, in Houston, Portland, and Toronto. Attendance ranged from a dozen people to more than a thousand during the protests.
Dozens of protesters in Rethymno marched against police repression in universities, enabled by the passing of a law through Parliament by the Ministry of Education which enabled police to re-enter university campuses for the first time since 1975.
Dozens in the greater Concepción area protested after the police murder of a street juggler in Panguipulli, clashing with police, placing barricades, and banging pots and pans across the city to make noise in a scene of solidarity with other cities protesting across Chile.
Dozens of demonstrators in the La Pincoya neighborhood of Santiago returned to the streets against the neoliberal police state in Chile, implemented and propped up by the right-wing president Sebastian Piñera. Police brutally cracked down on the protest, deploying water cannons and tear gas.
