No, I have not.
This is the first time that I had heard anything like this before.
Detainees were yelling from different outdoor yards, little patches of concrete with a single basketball hoop.
So at some point, someone started bringing a listening device with a parabolic dish.
And it's not the only way they communicated.
I guess there's like a drain in one of the yards, or I'm not sure if it's in every yard.
And so some of the detainees started like kneeling and like yelling through the hole.
The organizers, who call themselves the Otay Mesa Detention Collective, told Aisha that the first time they realized they could communicate through bullhorns and shouting was shortly after they started gathering outside the detention center last fall.
They were giving out tamales and bags of fruit to families coming for visiting hours when they heard a woman yelling from inside the detention center.
She was yelling on behalf of another woman who was inside and far from her family.
Here's a recording of that.
Her name was Yulisa, and her family did not know where she was.
And so they were asking if the organizers could connect with the family or just get some help so that her family could know that she was in Otay Mesa.
One of the organizers posted video of that exchange on Instagram, and it went viral.
Someone responded in a comment, And then set up a GoFundMe that said Yulisa's family had been looking for her for a week.
Until then, all they knew was that she never showed up to pick up her one-year-old daughter from daycare.
When Aisha first saw that video, she thought it was something that had happened once.
She didn't realize it was happening all the time until she was there.
In the middle of all these A numbers being shouted out, another thing happened.
I was just like observing and I saw like people scramble.
