Wellesley protest supports Minnesota anti-ICE movement

January 27, 2026 by admin

Some 200 people turned out on Friday, Jan. 23 in front of Wellesley Town Hall to protest the actions of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers, a day before another Minnesota resident was killed during an encounter with ICE personnel.

An ICE Out for Good rally was held at the same spot just a few days earlier.

The Wellesley News, the Wellesley College student-run newspaper and site, covered the latest protest.

Thanks to Iris Zhan (@wellesleystudent) for sharing photos.
