Channelview High Students Walk Out To Protest ICE-Next Action Is When You Organize It

1/22/2026

Great to see students at Channelview High School walk out of class today walk out of class today to protest ICE. (Picture above from Channel 2.)

Since the ICE murder of Renee Good, there have been grassroots-organized ICE protests across the Houston region in Katy, Clear Lake, Conroe, Kingwood, Galveston, Cypress, Downtown Houston, Pearland, Sugar Land as well as near the Galleria. There is one scheduled for La Porte at the end of the month.

The next action is when you organize it. The 1st Amendment is your permit. The only credential needed is your presence. Every community is part of the fight. The work ahead is ours.

I'm a rank & file Houstonian. I’ve volunteered extensively for Democratic candidates and causes, and served as staff for multiple campaigns. My work for Democratic campaigns has involved communications and strategy.

I’m an organizer of the Weekly John Cornyn Houston Office Protest. The Cornyn Protest team has been outside Senator Cornyn’s office each Tuesday for eight years now with one clear message: In addition to voting, we must show up physically and non-conventionally for the fights over democracy. Events have proven this assertion correct.

I'm on the Egberto Willies Politics Done Right Show every Thursday from 6 AM to 7 AM for the Houston Democracy Project segment. You can hear the show on the radio, stream it on KPFT or watch later on Egberto's YouTube channel.
