ICE Out of Everywhere is a peaceful, nonviolent action in response to the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, and all those who have died in ICE custody.

Fort Myers Visibility Brigade is joining the nationwide ICE OUT event on Saturday January 31st from 1pm to 3pm on the Interstate 75 Estero Parkway Overpass Bridge. The address is 1500 Estero Parkway, Fort Myers, FL. 33913.

Signs must be HUGE to be seen by interstate traffic below. 16-inch letters OR BIGGER recommended. The bigger, the better. (My signs have 19-inch letters, for example.) Flags are always welcome.

Park on the EAST side of the bridge, on either side of the road, in the grass.
(10-15 minute walk UPHILL to reach the top of the bridge.)

We need help attaching signs to the fencing if you can arrive early (12pm).

Note: If you bring regular-sized signs, you will need to face the traffic on Estero Parkway, instead of facing interstate traffic. There is not much traffic on Estero Parkway. Recommend bringing HUGE signs for interstate traffic. You can spray paint 20-inch letters on a king size bed sheet and use bungee cords to attach the sheet to the fencing, for example.

If you can, bring a whistle in case ICE shows up. (Not expected, but as a precaution.)

A core principle behind all Visibility Brigade/50501 events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.

Motorized wheelchairs should be fine because there is a sidewalk but manual wheelchairs are not recommended because it's a steep climb uphill to the top of the bridge.
