Got an idling 3D printer? Want to do something in the fight against ICE, but don’t know how to get involved? You can 3D print whistles for folks in communities that may be targeted by ICE!
Why whistles?
- Instant alert system
- Faster and harder to sensor than social media
- Simple, cheap, effective
- Noise = visibility
- Turns silence into community action
- The sound gathers a crowd whenever and wherever ICE shows up
- Already being used to great effect in cities like LA and Chicago
Once you 3D print some whistles, you can either drop them off with us, or we can send someone to pick them up from you. You don’t even have to leave your home to contribute!
No 3D printer? Still lots of ways to help out: Assemble whistle kits, contribute money, translate materials, spread the word, etc.

And you don’t need to join anything to get started. Just download and print!
FAQ
Q: Why not just buy whistles?
A: We do that too, but 3D printed ones are cheaper. (And can be made on demand, customized easily, etc.)
Q: When is ICE coming to Seattle?
A: They’re already here and kidnapping people daily.
Is this sort of thing going on in other cities, too?
ICE raids? Yeah. I live in central Ohio and a friend is currently in the hospital after ICE raided his restaurant, beat him up, and arrested all his staff (all fully US citizens but with brown skin so ICE doesn’t care)
Fucking Nazi thug shit
No, distributing whistles to combat them.
Ah, mb - I haven’t heard of that here yet but there’s definitely been talk locally of finding better ways to track and deter ICE
Yup. Chicago and LA are way ahead on whistles, given how much they’ve tangled with ICE already. But it’s spreading to other cities like Seattle now as well.
