US citizens and permanent residents: have you been racially profiled by ICE?

We'd like to hear from people of color who believe they have been targeted by immigration agents because of their race, language or location

Amid Donald Trump's latest immigration crackdowns throughout the nation, people of color increasingly have reported that they have been racially profiled by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.

In the Minneapolis area, where about 2,000 ICE officers and 800 Customs and Border Protection agents have been deployed, federal agents have targeted Latino and Somali communities in recent weeks. On 15 January, the ACLU and other attorneys filed a class-action lawsuit against the Trump administration for the alleged racial profiling and unlawful arrest of three Minnesotans and others. One of the plaintiffs listed in the lawsuit, a US citizen, said that he was stopped by masked ICE agents as he walked to lunch. In another instance in Minneapolis, ICE officers asked people of color to provide documentation that they were legally in the US as they charged their electric vehicles.
