THE DISAPPEARED IN LIGHT, UNDER THE SHADOW OF THE SUPREME COURT LEGITIMIZING RACIAL PROFILING – THE TRUMP FASCIST REGIME MUST GO NOW!
WHAT: Refuse Fascism L.A. will do multiple projections throughout Los Angeles of the Disappeared/Los Desaparecidos who’ve been kidnapped by Trump’s Fascist Regime onto City Hall and the Federal Detention Center.
In the wake of a devastating Supreme Court decision and the military occupation of Chicago, these projections serve as both memorial and resistance. The walls will speak what the courts have silenced.
WHERE: City Hall – 200 N. Spring St., Los Angeles, CA
AND Federal Detention Center – 110 N. Alameda St., Los Angeles, CA
WHEN: Saturday, September 13, 2025
7:30 – 8:30 PM
WHY IT MATTERS:
On September 5, the Supreme Court stripped critical legal protections, expanded executive authority, and cleared the way for military force against civilians.
The fallout was swift: Chicago lives under military occupation. Tanks patrol neighborhoods. Protesters vanish. Migrants are detained without charges. Black, Brown, and immigrant communities face racial profiling and targeted repression.
This ruling has legitimized the machinery of fascism — a system of terror designed to erase opposition and enforce obedience.
The Court has spoken. But so will we — in the language of light, resistance, and refusal.
This projection is not symbolic. It is a warning. We cast their faces in light so they cannot be erased. We put truth on the walls so it cannot be ignored. We answer silence with vision. We answer fascism with collective defiance.
This is not a moment — it’s the beginning of a nationwide resistance.
On November 5, 2025 — the anniversary of Trump’s re-election — The Disappeared/Los Desaparecidos project will to travel Washington, D.C., launching a nationwide movement of sustained, nonviolent protest to drive the Trump fascist regime from power.
The emergency is now. The movement begins here.
