Sarah Younger, 60, holds up her torch Friday night during a speech by a local activist protesting the use of immigration detention centers across the United States. Younger said she came to the protest because, like many others, she wants the camps to be closed down. She said she came to the event dressed as the Statue of Liberty “to remind us all of the land we love, the land of freedom.”

Heysel Marte, 30, Milliana Rodriguez, 8, and her brother Noah Rodriguez, 7, listen to a speech during the vigil. Milliana, who goes by Millie, sang for the group of protestors, performing the song “One Day” by Matisyahu. Millie said she thinks about the children in detention centers when she sings. “I think they aren’t really happy, and I want them to be free someday,” she said.

Nancy Parkinson, 70, sits on the front steps of City Hall and holds up a sign protesting immigration detention centers. Parkinson said she created her protest sign based on a popular Heysel Marte, 30, shields her candle during the vigil. “It’s immoral anti-Vietnam War poster from when she was young. She also said she would be writing letters what they’re doing to the kids,” Marte said. “These are children.” to government officials about the detention centers.
