Immigration Raids and Public Perception
This chapter examines the public communications and strategies employed by the Secretary of Homeland Security surrounding immigration raids, particularly during the Trump administration. It highlights the tension between law enforcement objectives and the spectacle of publicity reflected in ICE operations, including a specific raid in Newark, New Jersey. Through personal stories of those apprehended, the chapter delves into the broader implications of these actions on immigrant communities and the legality of such operations.
