Students protest at the University of California, San Diego, May 22, against raids of homes and businesses a week earlier by federal cops from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). On May 15, ICE cops searched the home of a UC San Diego student living in campus housing. The student worked at a San Diego bakery where 18 workers had been rounded up earlier that day. ICE reported that more than 900 immigrants were arrested in a “statewide enforcement surge” the first three weeks of May. According to the San Diego Tribune, 137 of those arrested were in the San Diego area—73 of them individuals targeted by the immigration cops for arrest, 64 simply caught up in the indiscriminate dragnet.
