Day of the Dead celebrations are seeing a resurgence across the United States even as Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrests continue. Participants say honouring deceased loved ones with altars, marigolds and gatherings carries new meaning under heightened immigration enforcement, with organisers stressing that 'it's important to bring joy in dark times' and that the tradition has become an act of resilience and remembrance for immigrant communities.
Why now: Immigration enforcement is intensifying, making the holiday's themes of memory and community resilience especially resonant right now.
