LA RESISTENCIA
La Resistencia is a grassroots organization led by undocumented immigrants and people of color that have been oppressed by the immigration enforcement system. We are based in Washington State working to end the detention of immigrants and stop deportations. Originally founded in March 7th 2014 to support a hunger strike launched by over 1200 people detained in Tacoma to protest their confinement, La Resistencia began under the umbrella of the national #Not1More campaign as “NWDC Resistance.” Today, La Resistencia is led by the experts that know the system better than anyone, those that have been detained or have had relatives in deportation proceedings. We support and engage with people detained at the Northwest Detention Center who organize for their own survival and in protest against the detention and deportation regime. We are a grassroots immigrant led group that organizes across the prison barrier. Our goal is to shut down the NWDC, and to end all detentions and deportations in Washington State.
FREEDOM PROJECT
Freedom Project works alongside the community to dismantle systems of oppression and heal from the traumatic effects on people who are targeted and impacted by incarceration, on their loved ones, and on our community.
​
As a community-centered and culturally-responsive organization, we come from, are in, and are directed by the community we seek to serve – Black, Indigenous, and Communities of Color who have been impacted by mass incarceration. We create space for collective healing and liberation by seeing each other for our humanity, meeting needs as defined by individuals and by the community, and amplifying the power that already exists among us. We work to dismantle the institution of mass incarceration and heal its traumatic effects on individuals directly impacted by incarceration, on their loved ones, and on our community.​
