What we saw last week was an incredible display of people power, unity, and community. Tens of thousands of people shut down Minnesota, and thousands more rallied with them in cities across the country. The regime responded by murdering Alex Pretti and bringing more violence to the streets of Minnesota. ICE is still targeting, harassing, kidnapping, and killing our neighbors.
But instead of backing down, more and more people stood up. The regime is feeling the pressure of outrage and organizing across the country. Now is a critical moment to turn up the heat and tell corporations they must pick a side. We will not accept mealy-mouthed half measures that try to placate public anger while the corporations continue to enable the fascist machine. Not in Minnesota, and not in neighborhoods and cities across the country where people are sick and tired of living in fear and violence from ICE.
Tomorrow, Saturday 1/31, show up for Minnesota and everyone harmed by ICE:
Can’t join an action this Saturday? There are still many other ways to support Minnesotans on the ground. Activists and organizers are pulling together resources and funds to provide rent relief, mutual aid, food, baby supplies, and more to folks and families in need.
