Announcing our official lineup for Vol. 1. 🎤

Contra-ICE is a collective of musicians, artists, and community-based organizers using creative expression to stand up to inhumane treatment, policy overreach, and abuses carried out under immigration enforcement.

Through art, culture, and coordinated public action, Contra-ICE connects people to organizing, mutual aid, and support for impacted communities.

Proceeds will go to @uniondelbarrio @daylaborernetwork and more.

Exhale the dumb shit, homie. A good lesson learned from Creeper at the CONTRA ICE event in Los Angeles. You may have missed it. We got you covered. Here’s our report on the gathering of creatives for the launch of the ICE OUT collab project. #NickValenciaNews #IceOut #ContraIce #FYP #ExplorePage

Contra-ICE is an urgent creative response to policies that are tearing our families and communities apart. We use music, art, and spoken word because culture is one of the most powerful ways to reach people.

In moments like this, we can show empathy, stand together, and remind people that no matter what is happening politically, we still have the power to dream, create, and speak out against injustice.

Please help us continue important actions like this by making a donation at contra-ice.com

America is at a cultural tipping point. While the world watches the game, California is making sure the message is heard loud and clear: It’s time to get ICE out of our communities.

Immigrants make this country stronger. We are proud of where we are from and who we are.

Joy is resistance. Enjoy the show today amigos.
