Shut Down Adelanto

This last Friday, September 27th, CLUE leaders joined the “Journey to Freedom” ride in front of the privately-run Adelanto ICE Immigration Detention Center, to demand humane treatment, release and closure of the facility.

In centers such as Adelanto, asylum seekers and other immigrants are incarcerated for long periods, fueling a profit-driven system that prioritizes forced labor and funding over justice and humanity.

CLUE contingent at the Adelanto ceremony included (L-R): Sithy Bin, Pastor Reverend Walter Contreras, Reverend Juan Carlos Durruthy, Tona Rios, Liz Bar-El, and Guillermo Torres

During the pilgrimage, Christian and Jewish religious leaders offered prayers in remembrance of those who have died in Adelanto, for healing and strength, and in support of the release of those who are currently incarcerated.
