  • Burlington Community Rallies After ICE Detentions, Spring Events Bring Joy

    Burlington Community Rallies After ICE Detentions, Spring Events Bring Joy
    Mar 14 2026
    Good morning, this is your Burlington Local Frequency for Saturday, March 14th.

    We're starting our weekend with a community that's still processing the significant events from earlier this week. Yesterday, hundreds of Vermonters gathered at Burlington City Hall to show solidarity with three people detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement in South Burlington on Wednesday. The peaceful demonstration, organized by immigrant rights group Migrant Justice, saw protesters march down Church Street to the federal courthouse, chanting messages of support for those arrested. Among those detained were two sisters from Ecuador with pending asylum claims and a man who's lived in the United States for about a decade and has an American citizen child. The arrests came after an intense morning that included a high-speed vehicle chase near local schools, prompting safety concerns from South Burlington Police and the broader community. The emotional weight of these events extended to South Burlington High School, where roughly thirty students walked out of class to protest the arrests on Friday, with several school board members and parents joining them in solidarity.

    On a brighter note, if you're looking to get out and celebrate spring this evening, the Miller Center on Goss Court is hosting a Family Dance Party and General Revelry from six-thirty to eight-thirty tonight. It's a wonderful opportunity to bring the community together and enjoy some music and dancing as we transition into warmer weather.

And looking ahead to next week, the Flynn Theater has some exciting performances coming.

It's an unforgettable show for audiences of all ages. Also next week, the Book of Mormon musical will be at the Flynn starting March twenty-fourth, with shows continuing through the twenty-fifth.

    As our community processes the week's immigration enforcement actions and continues to rally around those impacted, there are plenty of ways to stay connected and engaged right here in Burlington.
