Seven months into President Trump’s second term, a frightening sense of fear has spread through Latino communities across the United States. This has caused many beloved summer cultural events to be canceled or postponed.
This fear comes directly from the increased operations of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), which is now aiming for an unprecedented 3,000 arrests per day. This aggressive enforcement is not just targeting people without legal status; it has also expanded to include residents with legal protections and even American citizens, all of whom are being swept into a deportation system that often ignores proper legal procedures.
