Last summer in Los Angeles, numerous residents began to disappear as armed, masked immigration agents from ICE conducted raids throughout the city. People were taken from street corners, workplaces, parking lots, and department stores. Those arrested included partners, primary breadwinners, grandparents, children, carwasheros, and coffee shop regulars. These individuals were detained and deported, leaving their neighborhoods profoundly affected.
The raids overwhelmed the city, deeply impacting families and communities. This information is based on reporting by Maanvi Singh for Guardian US.
