Ice Breakers

Join the Movement!

Ice Breakers is a global network driving relentless, creative resistance alongside impacted communities. We wield direct action, protest, theater, art, music, and education to force corporations supporting ICE and ERO to divest. By systematically cutting off their support, we dismantle the deportation machine.

Every Death Star has a weak spot.

Ice Breakers draws its strength straight from the people. We take nothing from corporations, billionaires, or the government. Our fuel is direct action.
We go after ICE’s corporate sponsors with unrelenting, escalating campaigns designed to force one thing: divestment.

Make no mistake—ICE’s deportation machine runs on profit. Our people power is the wrench in its gears. We expose every enabler, sever every connection, and dismantle the machine one wire at a time.

Formed in 2018, our strategic plan began to take shape the moment we refused to look away.
Before we knew it, we were living at the gates of the Macadam Detention Center—an ICE transfer hub in Portland. That occupation wasn’t planned; it was inevitable.

We simply could not stand by while children—alone, without lawyers—were deported into the unknown.

When we connected the dots, millions of others did too. And they showed up.

Within days, occupations sparked in ten cities across America. It was like striking a match: intense, determined, short-lived. But Portland was different.

Our occupation lasted nearly eight months.

During that time, some of the brightest and most committed organizers anywhere showed up and gave it everything they had. Together, we built something more than protest—we created a blueprint. We carved a path to abolition.
