Yesterday, a neighbor, community member, mother, and artist was murdered in our neighborhood and city. Connections to Independence holds Renee Good’s family and loved ones in our hearts as they grieve an unimaginable loss that should never have happened. They deserve care, protection, and the full support of our community.

The senseless violence and militarized presence of ICE and the Department of Homeland Security in our neighborhoods must stop. Our rights and freedoms are being violated with each passing day this occupation continues.

The pain our community is experiencing cannot be put into words. While we are devastated, we are not surprised that this invasion of our city has resulted in the loss of an innocent life at the hands of a federal officer.

C2i stands firmly with our immigrant youth, neighbors, and families. Young people who have experienced foster care are especially vulnerable to surveillance, targeting, and harm by government systems. We are doing everything in our power to ensure the young people we serve are supported, safe, connected to community, and have their basic needs met during this time.

We do not have all the answers or all the resources. But we are committed to creating space for the youth at C2i to feel as safe as possible, however they choose to engage with this tragedy.

We join our community in calling for the swift and full prosecution of this crime and accountability for all those responsible for Renee’s murder.

If there are foster youth in your life, we urge you to check in on them. Make sure they have the community support they need to feel safe. Make sure they and their children have food, especially while schools are closed. Make sure they know who to call if they are detained. Make sure they know their rights and are empowered with information should they encounter ICE or other government forces. We are doing the same.

In grief and solidarity,
The C2i Team
