"Justice for Lorenzo": Houston Community Demands Accountability After ICE Killing of Mexican Father
Houston community members continue to demand justice for Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, the 52-year-old Mexican father who was shot and killed by an ICE agent July 7. He had lived in the United States for nearly 35 years and had three U.S. citizen children. The ICE agents involved in his killing have not been identified, and it's unclear whether they remain on active duty.

For more on the community response, we get a report from Democracy Now! producers on the ground in Houston. To many people in the city's immigrant communities, Salgado Araujo was "Houston's dad," representative of their own families and not a dangerous criminal as the government has tried to portray him.

"He looks just like all of our parents. He has the same story, the same American dream," a resident named Sonia told Democracy Now!

"We are demanding justice for Lorenzo, but it's not just that," a mourner said at a rally. "These terrorists coming from the government, it's not just in Houston, it's not just in Texas, it's not just in the United States. It's terrorism all over the world."
