In April 2018, an immigration raid at the Southeastern Provision meatpacking plant in the small town of Bean Station, Tennessee upended a community. Federal agents from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), Customs and Border Protection (CBP), and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) descended on the plant alongside Tennessee Highway Patrol troopers and local police officers. Armed with long guns and raid gear, agents detained around 100 Latinx workers, transported them to a National Guard armory, and placed most in deportation proceedings.
