What to Expect - Funeral procession NCATC
9:00 AM ETWe’ll gather at the White Cap Business Park (426 Industrial Ave.) and walk as a somber funeral procession to the LESC, grieving all who have died at the hands of ICE. The walking route is approx. 1 1⁄4 miles.
What to Expect: Nonviolent Sit-In (LESC)
10:00 AM ETIndividuals willing to risk arrest, who are trained in NVDA and a member of an affinity group, will participate in a sit-in at 188 Harvest Lane. This action will stictly adhere to nonviolent principles. Other participants are invited to express their support, legally, at a designated area adjacent to the sit-in.
IMPORTANT!
Direct Action requires training
We welcome all to participate in the funeral procession and gathering. The sit-in is limited to individuals who have completed nonviolent direct action (NVDA) training and are members of an affinity group.

Why Williston, VT?
Critical infrastructure for nationwide ICE operations resides in Williston. Our demonstration will focus on two key facilities:
National Criminal Analysis and Targeting Center (NCATC)
The digital surveillance work performed at the White Cap Business Park enables ICE to track and violently detain people at a national level. The NCATC sends out "Targeting Orders" to 25 field offices across the country.
This facility also surveils "family members, friends, or co-workers" of potential targets. The work includes surveilling social media, including searching for "negative sentiment" towards ICE. It's one of only two facilities in the country that performs surveillance functions.
Law Enforcement Support Center (LESC)
ICE's National Tip Line operates at Harvest Lane, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. ICE's central database of information on 340,000 targets for arrest is housed here. This facility not only responds to tips, but also performs "proactive targeting" of individuals, just like the NCATC.
The work at both facilities is fraught with error, dangerous, and unconstitutional.
