ICE Protest @ Clark County Jail
Join us in peaceful protest and demand an END to ICE.
In April 2025 the Clark County jail began incarcerating ICE detainees after signing a financial agreement with federal authorities. Local officials have suggested this money could help offset tax shortfalls.
We reject the notion that balancing budgets can justify stripping people of their dignity and ripping apart families.
Signs and sign material may be available on-site.

It’s a Choice. End ICE in Clark County Kickoff
Join us for a community gathering kicking off the campaign NOT IN OUR NAME: End ICE Detention in Clark County NOW.
We’re in the shelter near the lake. Doors open at 5:30, come early to enjoy the music, then get ready to Do Something!
We’ll have music, speakers & community. Do Something Southern Indiana will provide light sandwiches, and you can bring something good to share at an outdoor event. Let’s lift our collective voices and let them know what actually IS in our name: the end of ICE detention at Clark County Jail.
You’ll leave this kickoff with a full awareness of how Clark County got here, true accounts of what this is doing to our neighbors, and an action plan of what you can do. Bring your family & bring your friends.
The decision to put money over morality was a choice. A choice made in the name of Clark County residents, but without our input.
NOT IN OUR NAME.

CoFound
**NOTE** This CoFound is on Tuesday, June 2, NOT Wednesday, June 3.
These days, virtually any political debate will become an argument about constitutionality, and few matters are more contentious than the separation of church and state.
Today we have national movements like Project 2025 and local efforts such as the LifeWise Academy trying to reshape our government and culture. Many religious activists further seek to coerce us in the most personal aspects of our lives.
At our next meeting, we’ll discuss the influence of religion, the rise of Christian nationalism and the contested boundary between church and state.
Join us for a moderated discussion and let your voice be heard.

Nima Kulkarni—Standing With Our Neighbors: Immigrant Justice & Community Action
Nima's mission and DSSIN's values are deeply aligned. This is a rare opportunity to learn from someone who has lived the immigrant experience, built institutions to serve immigrant communities, and now carries that work into the halls of the Kentucky legislature.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
One-hour presentation on immigration law, the current landscape facing immigrant communities, and pathways for advocacy
Community Q&A — bring your questions!
Next steps planning for DSSIN's newly formed Justice & Advocacy Team and coalition building opportunities
ABOUT NIMA: Nima's story is the American dream lived and fought for. She immigrated to Louisville from India at age six, watched her parents build a new life running a small neighborhood grocery in Germantown, and went on to intern with Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch before founding Indus Law Firm in 2010. In 2013, she founded the New Americans Initiative to educate and engage communities around immigrant rights. Today she serves as a Kentucky State Representative, advocating for working families and expanded access to opportunity for all.
Open to everyone—DSSIN members, allied organizations, and all community members who care about immigrant justice and human rights. Please share widely!
