The point of the ICE demonstrations are two fold.
In LA, many of the organizations organizing these demonstrations also do ICE patrols in their communities, and these patrols have been effective at actually preventing deportations.
The other benefit is like what you said, it’s to show people that they’re not alone in this struggle, to build community. Community is necessary in order to win a prolonged struggle.
These demonstrations both fulfill a need (not getting deported) and it also raises morale. Without fulfilling some sort of need, demonstrations can very quickly be viewed as “useless” which will lead to the very people we’re trying to save to lose faith and be politically deactivated.
We need these people to stay politically activated and in the struggle because their active material interest (not being deported) grants them the potential to be active and high quality organizers… a vanguard in formation.
