During the July 2025 raid on Glass House Farms in Camarillo, Ventura County professor and labor organizer John Caravello was taken by ICE. He is now facing federal felony charges for assault of a federal officer because he threw an activated tear gas canister out of harm’s way. Trial begins March 24th in downtown Los Angeles. Leading up to and during John’s trial, we want to make it clear that the community stands with John, who answered the call to protect vulnerable fellow workers.
On March 12th, from 12:00-1:00, California Faculty Association and Students for Quality Education are co-hosting a rally on the CSUCI campus. Our goal is to pack the space in front of Broome library with folks who oppose both ICE and the government’s attempts to silence ICE resistance.
Veterans for Peace will attend the rally with signage and VFP flags. Members please come by wearing VFP clothing in support of a fellow citizen who involved himself as VFP is asked to. Two of VFP’s bullet points are to oppose the militarization of law enforcement and to resist racism and repression in our home communities. Please come, and, look for our flags. The public is invited to attend this event.
