In the article, Anderson details alarming incidents around the country in which photojournalists have faced state repression for doing photojournalism covering immigration enforcement operations. She also shares the overwhelming sentiment from the photojournalists she interviewed about the importance of continuing to do the work despite facing repression, as well as suggestions on how to stay as safe as possible under extremely trying conditions.Brooke’s articlehttps://prismreports.org/2026/02/18/photojournalists-ice-raids-movement-journalism/ Brooke Andersonmovementphotographer.com Instagram https://www.instagram.com/movementphotographer/ Crisis Ready Media application for free PPE for freelance journalists https://www.crisisreadymedia.org/Form-PPE-RequestGuild Freelancers CWA Local 39521 https://www.guildfreelancers.org/ New Law Aims to Protect Journalists Covering Civil Disturbanceshttps://www.guildfreelancers.org/news/2021/12/27/new-law-aims-to-protest-journalists-covering-civil-disturbances ‘The World Needs To See It’: The Moment A Photographer Saved A Camera From ICEhttps://www.huffpost.com/entry/john-abernathy-photos-ice-minnesota_n_696c2c6ce4b043a364235a53 When your local reporter needs the same protection as a war correspondent by Michelle Zenarosahttps://lapublicpress.org/2025/11/reporting-on-immigration/ The Intercept: The Farcical Case Against Don Lemon and Georgia Fort for Protest Reporting-----Music: Fresh Flow Fiesta by Oleksii Holubiev: https://pixabay.com/music/beats-fresh-flow-fiesta-160920/
