👋 Hi Bluesky! We’re ISAIAH — a multiracial group of Minnesotans building #PeoplePower to win a just future for everyone in our state. We come from faith communities, Black barbershops, childcare centers, college campuses, rural places, city neighborhoods, manufactured home parks, and more!
🔊 At #ALightInTheStorm, Muna led us in a powerful Somali chant to ground us in this moment:
👏🏾👏🏼👏🏿 Today, today, today. Today is a big day!
A big day to stand up for each other.
A big day to choose courage and solidarity.
A big day to unite behind a People’s Agenda. ✨

I was THERE! #ALightInTheStorm
🌟 On Dec 13, 5,000+ Minnesotans from every race, faith, and corner of our state gathered for #ALightInTheStorm.
📣 In a year of rising costs, ICE raids, and authoritarian attacks, we chose each other — and a People’s Agenda rooted in dignity, affordability, and hope for all.

In Minnesota, we care about our neighbors—no matter our income, skin color, or where we were born. As Trump and the ICE machine attack our immigrant neighbors, we’re coming together to say MN ❤️'s our neighbors. March with us: www.facebook.com/share/1JbXD5...

✍️ Dear Somali Minnesotans: We love you, and we’ve got you. 🤝
We’re not buying the scare tactics — not now, not ever.
We’ll stand with you and protect you while you pray.

Proud to stand with over a hundred faith leaders this week in Minneapolis, denouncing the president’s hate speech and affirming that every person—across race, place, and faith—is made in the image of God.
🔊 Thank you, Pastor @obyballinger.com! Trump wants to distract from skyrocketing healthcare costs by stoking fear, but Minnesotans aren’t taking the bait.
We reject these attacks on our Somali neighbors. Together we’re #GreaterThanFear! 📣

Proud to be Minnesotan as we show the country that we are #GreaterThanFear and modeling true patriotism in these times 💪🏾
Minnesotans are known for three things:
❄️ Shoveling each other out in the snow
💜 Sticking with the Vikings through every season
🤝 Showing up for our neighbors when they’re under attack
📣 If you come for one of us, you come for all of us. That’s just who we are. #GreaterThanFear

Grateful to @isaiahmn.org for bringing together nearly 100 community members to stand in solidarity—in the cold and snow—and ensure the safety of our Muslim community members engaged in religious worship.
