· 3 pulledThere have been plenty of protests and other actions outside the immigrant detention center in Newark in solidarity with the detainees since they went on a hunger and work strike on May 22 over horrid conditions inside.
Those activities have been mirrored by those miles away from the facility, which detainees' families and strangers sympathetic to their cause want to see shut down.
Millions of dollars are divested from a major bank in the Garden State. A concert in Maplewood. A film screening in Jersey City. Demonstrations across New Jersey.
