ICE Out Living History Project

The purpose of this data collection project is to capture a counternarrative data set during Operation Metro Surge to investigate the health implications of oppressive systems and the protective factors of community care.

During a siege of violence, a researcher has a duty to fight for freedom. One way is to uplift the data that is too often overlooked or erased, the data that speaks to the question: how did we survive?

The purpose of this emergent project is to grasp the stories of endurance to tell the future of survival.

The ICE Out Living History Project has two components: the Rapid Response History Harvest and ICE Out Health Survey.

The Rapid Response History Harvest seeks to capture a counternarrative dataset during Operation Metro Surge to investigate the health implications of oppressive systems and the protective factors of community care. We hope to grasp the stories of endurance to tell the future of survival.

The ICE Out Living History Project is an emergent data collection project hosted by the Healthcare Reparations Cooperative.

“It is our duty to fight for our freedom.

It is our duty to win.

We must love each other and support each other.

We have nothing to lose but our chains.”
