Tell Northeastern University to drop its contract with ICE

Northeastern University

UPDATE: Join a protest at Northeastern University THIS WEDNESDAY at noon!

The US government is tearing families apart. Children have been kept in cages. There is more evidence every day that ICE is engaged in widespread human rights violations. And Northeastern University is helping them.

Northeastern has a multi-million dollar contract with ICE developing "Exploratory Methods Mapping" (EMM) technology. The university claims the program is related to weapons trafficking, but these data analysis techniques could just as easily be used to expand mass surveillance of immigrants and communities of color. Having any kind of contract with ICE at this moment in history is irresponsible and immoral.

Please sign and share the petition to tell Northeastern to stop helping ICE violate human rights.

Dear Northeastern University Administration:

The US government is tearing families apart. Children have been kept in cages. There is more evidence every day that ICE is engaged in widespread human rights violations. And Northeastern University is helping them.

The university claims​ its contract with ICE is related to weapons trafficking, but these data analysis techniques could just as easily be used to expand mass surveillance of immigrants and communities of color. Having any kind of contract with ICE at this moment in history is irresponsible and immoral.

We demand that you immediately end all contracts with ICE.
