Nationwide protests were held Tuesday under the banner “Close the Camps,” calling on lawmakers to shut down immigrant jails, defund detention and deportation, and reunite separated families. This is a demonstrator in New York City.

Nancy Nguyen: “I’m here because I want to make sure that people know that not all Americans agree with this, that Americans are—we are, like, a country of migrants and immigrants, and we need to stay true to our history and welcome the generations that are coming to build our country. So, I’m here because I’m against the child detention, the concentration camps here.”
