One such protest was organized by the pro-amnesty organization Movimiento Cosecha, which describes itself as “a new national movement fighting for permanent protection, dignity, and respect for all 11 million undocumented immigrants in the United States through mass economic noncooperation.” Taking place right in front of Trump Tower on 5th Avenue, in New York City, the protesters blocked traffic in the street as they called for DACA recipients who had been recently jailed to be released. According to one of the protest’s organizers, Vera Parra, the protest called for the release of nine particular DACA recipients who had been arrested that morning, but instead resulted in 22 “allies” being arrested for blocking traffic. Parra called the protests acts of “civil disobedience,” and a response to “the threat of facing ICE retaliation.”
