Democracy Now!' 's Maria Ines Teresena spoke with some of the visitors, as well as Cesar Espinosa, executive director of FIO.

Today we are at the memorial, the makeshift memorial, the community memorial, the community shrine that has been set up for Mr. Lorenzo Salgado Araujo.

Apparently, from what we know, Mr. Lorenzo was coming this way and then he U-turned and his van ended up in this very spot.

And unfortunately, this is where he took his last breaths.

As you can see, this is in the heart of Magnolia Park here in Houston, Texas.

One of the first Latino communities here in Houston.

People of the second, third generation.

She was outside the funeral home because recording was not permitted inside.

My name is Cesar Espinosa, and I am the executive director of FIELD.

The feeling inside is it paints a picture of a man who loved his family, who loved his kids, who loved life.

And his life should have never been taken away on that fateful Tuesday morning, July 7th, you know, three days after our Independence Day.

on the streets of Magnolia Park.

He should still be alive today at this time right now.

He should be having dinner at home.

And I'm curious, this particular case, what it means to the Mexican immigrant community right now.

I think one of the reasons why there's one of these cases stand out, uh, is because it, it is our story.

It is our, it is our deals and our dads and our, and our, uh, friends and our neighbors and people that we interact with every day.

So, and any one of those folks could be, could be Lorenzo.

Uh, I, I, I, as soon as I heard what had happened, uh, I thought about my stepdad who drives a work truck, who is a U.S. citizen, but he looks very much like Mr. Lorenzo.

And I remember a memory got triggered of a couple of years ago where my dad was standing waiting outside for an Uber at five in the morning to take him to work.

Because his work truck was down and one of our neighbors called the cops on him because he was a brown man standing outside of his house waiting for an Uber at five in the morning.

How have you been able to mobilize folks with you to take that kind of strategy?

But he had no idea what was going on.

Amy, we hear this all the time.

People are saying, well, why don't people comply? Why don't they why don't they just stop? But I want people to put themselves in these immigrants shoes or these people.

They all of a sudden they are being approached by unmarked vehicles.

These vehicles many times often start ramming vehicles, trying to get them to stop, trying to get them, force them to stop.

And when people jump out, they're not wearing insignia, you know, saying federal agents or ICE or a badge.

They're wearing a lot of the times plain clothing with vests that just say police.

Where are they? Who are they?
