A situation unfolding at an immigrant detention center in Newark, New Jersey has some drawing parallels to events that unfolded in Minnesota over the winter as federal immigration agents surged into the state.

On May 22, hundreds of immigrants inside the Delaney Hall detention center began what advocates call a hunger and labor strike.

Protesters have gathered outside the facility, and at times turned into clashes with federal agents.

Arya Sundaram has been reporting on the situation at the Delaney Hall ICE detention center for Gothamist, a nonprofit newsroom by WNYC. She joined MPR News host Nina Moini to talk more about it.
