Thousands of high school students rally against ICE in downtown Seattle
Thousands of students held a large anti-ICE rally in downtown Seattle Thursday afternoon.
The rally originated as a grassroots movement of high school students from all over King County. The students organized online and agreed to meet in downtown Seattle. As many as 2,000 students participated, saying they are here to protest the atrocities of ICE in cities all over the country.
“ICE is awful, and they’re doing horrible things, and it’s all bad, and everyone should be out here supporting that because people,” Sienna, a high school student in King County, told KIRO Newsradio. “Immigrants made America, and we’re killing them, and it’s awful. We’re putting them in camps, and it’s unfair. It should be illegal what they’re doing.”
