These sessions, such as the &#8220;ICE and Border Patrol Watch&#8221; hosted by Siembra, NC, involve role-playing exercises where volunteers simulate interactions with immigration agents, practice recording arrests, and learn how to alert neighborhoods when federal agents appear. The training teaches volunteers how to escort immigrants to school or work, document enforcement activity, and understand their rights when filming federal officers. Local leaders and attendees emphasize a strong sense of community solidarity and the importance of protecting one another. The trainings come amid Operation Charlotte&#8217;s Web, a federal immigration <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/seattle-school-district-claims-out-of-control-homeless-encampment-on-school-property-is-a-teachable-moment\/\" title=\"Seattle School District Claims \u2018Out Of Control\u2019 Homeless Encampment On School Property Is A \u2018Teachable\u2019 Moment\">enforcement sweep<\/a> targeting criminal migrants in the area, which has resulted in numerous arrests.
