Some say they hurt more than they ...The instrument has strengthened community ties, but some organizers say whistles can create panic or confusionOver the past year, whistles have become a symbol of the collective resistance of ordinary people standing up to federal immigration enforcement. As the Trump administration expands its immigration crackdown to cities and towns across the US, people are relying on whistles to warn their neighbors about the presence of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents.But not all activists agree on their efficacy.
