Solidarité Internationaliste avec les migrant·e·s aux États-Unis

A statement by Friends of the Earth International (ATI) expressing solidarity with migrants in the United States and calling for the abolition of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) due to systemic violence, racial profiling, and human rights violations.

• Friends of the Earth International (ATI) denounces systemic violence and racial profiling by US agencies, specifically the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Customs and Border Protection (CBP), and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The organization highlights the intentional targeting of Black migrants, racial profiling of Indigenous and Latin American people, and the targeting of children. Medical negligence in ICE detention has resulted in 38 deaths since 2025, and the document cites the killings of Alex Jeffrey Pretti, Renee Nicole Good, Silverio Villegas Gonzalez, and Keith Porter Jr. as evidence of a disregard for human life.
• The document asserts that border surveillance and police militarism fuel xenophobia and racism, disproportionately affecting Black and mixed-race individuals. It claims that the border surveillance industry violates human rights and separates families globally.
• ATI reports that fundamental human rights are violated within detention centers, citing reports of inadequate access to food, water, medication, and sanitary facilities. The organization describes the methods used by ICE, CBP, and DHS as involving arbitrary detention, collective punishment, and racial profiling, which they state are unconstitutional and violate the Geneva Convention.
• The statement frames migration as a natural form of climate adaptation and a response to environmental, political, or economic uncertainty. It argues that this uncertainty is caused by the interventions of multinational corporations and imperial powers, specifically the United States. ATI calls for the guarantee of the right to move or stay and the creation of safe, dignified migration pathways.
• ATI calls for the Trump administration to end policies that oppress immigrant populations and demands the abolition of ICE. The organization opposes the privatization of prisons and the militarization of borders, while supporting peaceful public protests in solidarity with displaced persons.
