About
What is the purpose of the OJO OBRERO map?
This website provides historical data about ICE activity in North Carolina.
It is not designed to provide live or even near-real-time information about law enforcement activity.
The purpose is to help workers get to work safely, help kids get to school, and provide information useful to anyone who wants to protect the Constitution during a time of rampant illegal racial profiling, deportations without due process and detentions of US citizens.
Are these all the ICE detentions since January 2025?
No. From information obtained by the Deportation Data Project we know there were 1,600 ICE arrests from January to June.
These two maps show a. jail and probation arrests and b. the community arrests we can confirm through calls to our hotline or that of organizations and attorneys who share our verification protocols.
If you want to help document more detentions, help spread the word about our hotline using our outreach materials or social media resources.
Our Hotline
Call 1 888 622 4616
to report suspected ICE operations or past detentions
- The caller must be the person observing the suspected activity, we cannot verify third-hand reports or social media rumors.
- If the activity was spotted within the last 10 minutes, we will send trained volunteers to verify.
- Be prepared to provide exact time, location, description including color, make/model of any vehicles.
How We Verify Federal Agent Operations
This is a map of federal, immigration-related incidents since January 20, 2025. Jail arrests were reported to the Deportation Data Project. All other incidents were confirmed by Siembra NC or our partners who use equivalent verification standards.
We receive reports sent to our hotline, our partners or posted on social media, and verify them with attorneys, family members or by using video, photo or audio recordings that confirm operations or surveillance by federal agents, not local or state law enforcement, and arrests that result in immigration detention.
Unlike other similar ICE monitoring apps...
- We do not allow community members to post unverified reports. This map only displays incidents we have confirmed with evidence of arrest or current detention by ICE, often following several conversations with family members.
- We do not post quickly. Most of our reports take at least 24 hours for our hotline team to verify.
We verify immigration detention
By receiving confirmation from attorneys or family members of the people detained.
If you want to report ICE operations, call our hotline and be prepared to provide
- Time, date, address of the operation
- Video, photo and/or audio recordings showing agents\' IDs, vests marked "HSI" or "ERO" or presenting themselves as federal agents
