Scrape Out ICE: Ice Scraper Protest Action

All over the country, ICE agents are targeting immigrants in and around Home Depot, attacking and terrorizing workers, customers, and surrounding communities. The raids are terrifying, chaotic, and sometimes deadly.

These atrocities are happening on Home Depot’s watch, on its properties, with its silence. The Home Depot company has not resisted or condemned these raids.

Join us in a buy-in action that has been successfully implemented across the country! In groups, we will line up to make the same small purchase (17 cent ice scrapers as long as they last, but could be more like a dollar) and then line up again to return it. We will hand out a list of alternative hardware stores to the customers whose shopping is disrupted, along with information about Home Depot’s complicity.

Bring $2 in cash so that the purchases and returns take more time.

For inspiration, check out:

A core principle behind all Indivisible events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
