@hyperallergic Police arrested 16 protesters who unfurled banners bearing portraits of ICE victims in the Hart Senate Office Building in Washington, DC. The protesters were members of the Women’s March advocacy organization and had staged a “die-in” while holding banners representing the tombstones of people who were killed by ICE agents or died in ICE custody. They gathered to call out senators who had financed ICE’s violence and were preparing to leave Washington for the August recess, the group said. The banners featured hand-drawn illustrations by Italian artist Gianluca Costantini, held up like gravestones in uneven rows. . . .
