""In political debates about immigration policy, sanctuary is one-sided. On the ground it's complicated- sometimes even contradictory. Analyzing interactions between police and ordinary people, Peter Mancina's deeply researched and provocative On the Side of Ice shows that the gap between sanctuary and policing is closer than policymakers, advocates, and migrants imagine it.""--César Cuauhtémoc García Hernández, author of Welcome the Wretched and Migrating to Prison ""Mancina masterfully utilizes police worn body camera footage to produce a timely and provocative picture of the role of local police in the national deportation machine.""--Alex S. Vitale, author of The End of Policing

On the Side of ICE offers an unflinching look at how surveillance technology is used against our communities, even in places that claim to protect them, and a powerful affirmation of the struggles we at the New Sanctuary Coalition witness daily. More than an academic work, this book is a crucial resource for organizers and advocates."" - Ravi Ragbir, Immigrant Rights Advocate and Executive Director of the New Sanctuary Coalition of New York City
