Several celebrities have taken to the streets and/or used their social media following to declare their opposition to ICE, and the DHS overall, as tensions reach a new high following the killing of Renee Nicole Good — an unarmed U.S. citizen who was shot by an ICE agent in Minneapolis — and Alex Pretti, a nurse who was shot and killed this past weekend by Border Patrol agents in Minneapolis.
The general disappointment with representatives of the Democratic Party also continues to escalate. “For Democratic leadership, the choice is no longer just about keeping the lights on. It’s recognizing a rare moment of alignment between moral necessity and hard-nosed pragmatism,” Logan McMillen writes for The Hill.
As the Democratic establishment continues to assess how to react to the ICE raids that have been approved, funded, and emboldened by the Trump administration, it’s been celebrities — particularly those in the LGBTQ+ community and well-known allies — who have led the charge on denouncing these actions and no longer staying silent on the issue.
Below, a list of more than 100 queer celebrities and allies who are actively raising money, sharing important resources, updating their own communities with new information, and donating to organizations in dire need of help. Democrats, take note.
