Hundreds
of
community
members gathered at the Federal
Building on Friday night for the
Ann Arbor: Lights for Liberty
vigil, joining more than seven

hundred events planned around
the world to bring awareness to
and demand an end to conditions
at immigration detention centers
along the southern U.S. border.
Waving homemade signs and
candles, protesters filled Liberty
Street from Fourth Street to Fifth
Street, which was closed off for

the event. The mission statement
on the official Lights for Liberty
website
said
the
events
are
planned to call out the “inhumane
conditions faced by migrants.”
“We are a coalition of people,
many of whom are mothers,
dedicated to human rights, and
the fundamental principle behind

democracy that all human beings
have a right to life, liberty and
dignity,” the website reads.
As migrant families fleeing
violence
and
poverty
from
Central America continue to be
apprehended on the southern
border
in
record-breaking
numbers,
an
independent
watchdog of the Department of
Homeland
Security
reported
“dangerous
overcrowding”
in
migrant holding facilities.
Held
for
days,
weeks
or
sometimes months past the 72 hour
limit for short-term detention,
migrants awaiting processing live
in “squalid” conditions and often
without necessary medical care.
Twenty-four
immigrants
have
died in U.S. Immigration and
Customs Enforcement care thus
far, including seven children.
In late June, Congress approved
a $4.6 billion aid package for
these detention facilities, passing
a less restrictive Senate bill in
a compromise by the House of
Representatives. On Wednesday,
the House Oversight and Reform
Committee conducted a hearing
on detention conditions.
Discovery of a secret Border
Patrol Facebook group in which
former
and
current
agents
joked about migrant deaths and
threatened Latinx legislators has
also provoked further outrage
and an investigation into the
group.
The vigils come ahead of
ICE plans to begin arrests and

deportations of undocumented
individuals in 10 major cities this
coming Sunday. Ann Arbor Lights
for
Liberty
organizer
Corky
Wattles reminded the audience of
this fact as she began the event.
Wattles led the audience in
chants of “Don’t look away”
before her opening remarks and
explained the latter half of the
event would be “solemn” and “in
mourning” of border conditions.
In her speech, she particularly
urged
young
people
in
the
audience to vote and become
involved in activist efforts.
“Kids,
hear
me
now:
if
everyone gets involved we can
take our country back, the land
of
liberty
and
compassion,”
Wattles said. “Not voting is never
an option… Doing nothing is no
longer an option.”
Earlier in the night, Wattles
told the audience the event staff
was collecting donations for
several organizations. Rebeca
Ontiveros-Chavez, an attorney
at one of those organizations,
the
Michigan
Immigrants
Rights Center, spoke about her
work representing hundreds of
children in immigration court
for deportation proceedings and
other immigration matters.
“I want to make absolutely
clear that it is not unlawful
to seek asylum in the United
States,” Ontiveros-Chavez said.
