Statements and Updates

On Thursday, June 12th, 50 kidnapped immigrants revolted against their inhumane conditions at Delaney Hall, a private detention facility operated by GEO Group in Newark. By the time the tear gas settled, captives had torn down a wall, family visitation was cancelled, and protestors mobilized to interrupt facility operations from the outside. At least four captives successfully liberated themselves from their unjust detention. At the time of this writing, the actions of those inside, supported by solidarity actions on the outside, have increased the urgency in calls to shut Delaney down.
