I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

Illegal logging is the main problem they're facing, but they won’t give up. Indigenous lands must be in Indigenous hands.

Traffic is flowing again, large number of people have dispersed. A small crowd is lingering at the site of the shooting. Media doing interviews.
A sign for Silverio Villegas González, shot and killed by ICE behind the wheel of his car outside Chicago in September, sits in the snow and flowers.
