High School Journalist Documents ICE Raids: A Generation Radicalized by Fear and Mistrust.
When immigration enforcement agents arrived at a Minneapolis high school on January 7th, student Lila Dominguez, witnessed the events unfold and immediately began writing about it. The presence of ICE agents and the surrounding chaos prompted the school district to cancel classes and offer remote learning options, impacting student attendance. In response to the growing fear and anxiety, schools are implementing protocols and offering support, but the overall effect is that the situation has disrupted the learning environment in the city. Many students, like Dominguez, are left feeling scared, sad, and angered by the situation.
