Know Your Rights
By ACLU
Last month, the Bay Area braced for a surge of National Guard soldiers and federal immigration agents. Although Trump ultimately called off the troops, in the short time Border Patrol officers were here, they fired flash-bang grenades at peaceful community members and shot a pastor in the face with a pepper ball. The unprovoked violence was a chilling glimpse of how future immigration raids could unfold here. That’s why we can’t become complacent.
Be prepared and know your rights in case federal agents show up anywhere in our region:
- Know Your Rights: Encountering Law Enforcement and Military Troops
- Know Your Rights: Taking Video or Photos of Law Enforcement
- Know Your Rights: Free Speech, Protests & Demonstrations
- Know Your Rights: If ICE Confronts You
