Minnesota makes us proud, general strike, shut it down.

The rally and march "ICE OUT!" in Manahatta, Lenapehoking (Manhattan, New York City) was organized by The People's Forum, the Party for Socialism and Liberation and other organizations, on January 30, 2026.

The rally was in Foley Square. Thousands of New Yorkers marched to Washington Square Park, where they ended the protest.

The Democratic Party and the Republican Party created ICE in 2002. Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton, Chuck Schumer and other democrats and republicans voted to create ICE in 2002. Republicans and democrats give BILLIONS to ICE. Republicans and democrats use ICE to arrest, deport and expel migrants. This is how republicans and democrats in the Senate voted in 2002: https://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_votes/vote1072/vote_107_2_00249.htm

“The call from Minnesota is clear: there can be no business as usual while ICE kills our neighbors, kidnaps our people, and wages terror around the country. Minnesota led the way last week with a massive general strike with over 100k people. Now it’s our turn to show up and shut it down. ICE out of everywhere!” said The People’s Forum before the protest.

"Stand with Minnesota. ICE out!
Minnesota student organizers called –– we all must ANSWER! Join the nationwide shutdown on Friday, January 30 to say ICE OUT!
Last Friday (January 23, 2026), the people of Minnesota made history with the first General Strike in the US in 80 years. Now, they’re calling on the people of the entire US to stand with them on Friday, January 30 in a nationwide shutdown to demand ICE out of our communities once and for all. No work. No school. No shopping," said the ANSWER Coalition before the demonstration. Info: https://www.instagram.com/p/DT_VinCErMg/

NEXT PROTEST IN NYC

MARCH IN SUPPORT OF THE PRESIDENT OF VENEZUELA, NICOLÁS MADURO, AND THE FIRST LADY, CILIA FLORES.
Saturday, Jan 31, 2026. 2:00 PM
Times Square (43rd Street & Broadway)
“As part of the Week of Resistance in Solidarity with Venezuela (Jan 23–31), we are marching to demand the freedom of Nicolás Maduro and Cilia Flores, an end to U.S. imperialist war and sanctions, the demilitarization of the Caribbean, and the withdrawal of U.S. military forces surrounding Venezuela.

U.S. imperialism abroad is inseparable from ICE terror at home—the same system that wages war and enforces sanctions abroad criminalizes, cages, and deports working-class and migrant communities here. One struggle, one fight.”_Workers World Party INFO: https://www.instagram.com/workersworld_party/p/DTyRm7Skpwa/
