Project South
Project South was founded as the Institute to Eliminate Poverty & Genocide in 1986.
This past Saturday, many incredible organizations came together to discuss, organize, and stand in solidarity around the work that needs to be done ahead of the upcoming World Cup here in Atlanta next month ✨
Together, we canvassed businesses, restaurants, and community spaces to become Sanctuary Zones places where ICE is not welcomed and where people are committed to creating alternatives to policing and protecting our communities 🤝🏽❤️
If you’re interested in becoming a Sanctuary Zone, please visit the link in our bio to learn more 🔗

PRESS RELEASE: Death in Georgia ICE Prison Prompts Advocates to Call for Immediate Independent Investigation
The death toll in Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody continues to rise with the tragic passing of Denny Adán González, 33, who died on April 28 at the Stewart Detention Center in Georgia.
Advocates are calling for a full independent investigation into the circumstances surrounding the death of Mr. González and the rampant use of force at the Stewart Detention Center.
González’s untimely passing marks a historic and horrifying rate of death in ICE custody — 18 deaths in ICE custody in just four months of 2026 and 49 total deaths since Trump began his second term.
Project South’s Senior Staff Attorney Priyanka Bhatt said:
“We are enraged and heartbroken mourning yet another death at ICE’s Stewart Detention Center. Mr. Denny Adán González’s death marks the 21st death in ICE custody in Georgia. This staggering and shameful number will only continue to grow unless action is taken now. The responsibility for the unconscionable number of deaths lies in the hands of ICE and the private prison corporation CoreCivic. This fundamentally violent and profit-mongering system must be shut down.”
