\"\"<\/a>Springfield High School Student Walkout\/Anti-ICE Immigration<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

The child holding the sign, \u201cCruelty is not Strength,\u201d is our son Vincent Mullins, Organizer of the Springfield High School Student Walkout\/Anti-ICE Immigration Awareness event, said proudly, Mr. & Mrs. Adam and Nikki Hernandez to La Prensa, Inc. \u201cThe idea of the walkout started on February 11, 2026, after hearing about even more ICE raids in schools where they detained children who were just looking for a better life here in America,\u201d said Vincent Mullins, age 15, and a Sophomore at Springfield High School in Holland, Ohio. Vincent said, \u201cAfter that, I knew something had to be done, so I started doing research about previous walkouts and what they did. I knew almost immediately that I had to get it verified by the school. The reason being that I never wanted anyone who participated to be in any academic trouble or get put in a dangerous situation from bystanders, without any protection. So after four separate meetings, I finally got the day set,\u201d Vincent says, his \u201cissue isn\u2019t with ICE as a whole, but the corruption is too much. To hear the discrimination our nation has for my people forced my hand.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Student Walkout\/Anti-ICE Immigration Awareness event was a peaceful, school-approved, safe event that was held on Thursday, March 5, 2026, at Springfield High School in Holland, Ohio. It was designed to raise awareness about ICE enforcement and how it harms students, families, and our community. The students stood in protest against unjust immigration practices and in solidarity for \u201ccompassion, unity, and respectful dialogue.\u201d<\/p>\n

Paro de Estudiantes de Springfield High School Contra ICE<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Por la Dra. Linda Alvarado-Arce<\/strong><\/p>\n

El ni\u00f1o que organiz\u00f3 “La Crueldad No Es Fuerza” contra ICE es nuestro hijo Vincent Mullins, estudiante de Springfield High School, dijo con orgullo el Sr. y la Sra. Adam y Nikki Hern\u00e1ndez a La Prensa, Inc. “La idea comenz\u00f3 el 11 de febrero de 2026, tras escuchar m\u00e1s redadas de ICE en escuelas donde detuvieron a ni\u00f1os que solo buscaban una vida mejor aqu\u00ed en los Estados Unidos,\u201d dijo Vincent Mullins, de 15 a\u00f1os y estudiante de Springfield High School en Holland, Ohio. Vincent dijo: “Despu\u00e9s de eso, supe que hab\u00eda que hacer algo, as\u00ed que empec\u00e9 a investigar sobre los paros anteriores y lo que hicieron. Supe casi de inmediato que ten\u00eda que hacer que la escuela lo confirmara. La raz\u00f3n es que nunca quise que nadie que participara tuviera problemas acad\u00e9micos o se viera en una situaci\u00f3n peligrosa por parte de los espectadores, sin ninguna protecci\u00f3n. As\u00ed que tras cuatro reuniones separadas, por fin he fijado el d\u00eda,” dice Vincent: Su \u201cproblema no es con ICE en general, pero la corrupci\u00f3n es demasiado. Escuchar la discriminaci\u00f3n que nuestra naci\u00f3n tiene hacia mi pueblo me oblig\u00f3 a actuar.”<\/p>\n

El evento fue un evento pac\u00edfico, aprobado por la escuela y seguro, que se celebr\u00f3 el jueves 5 de marzo de 2026 en el Springfield High School. Fue dise\u00f1ado para concienciar sobre la aplicaci\u00f3n de ICE y c\u00f3mo perjudica a estudiantes, familias y a nuestra comunidad. Los estudiantes protestaron contra pr\u00e1cticas migratorias injustas y en solidaridad con la “compasi\u00f3n, la unidad y el di\u00e1logo respetuoso.”<\/p>\n
