Good morning MSP.

Sending love to everyone on Day 7 of the federal occupation.

Asks for today:
1. Continue to defend our neighbors. Together, we are stronger than ICE.

2. Shovel the sidewalks of your immigrant neighbors this week so they don’t have to be out on the street alone.

Support this essential resource. The staff are doing amazing work and need our support.

This turned into a 3,000 whistle day.

We sent whistles to school and university communities, neighborhood shops, and block meetings.

The outpouring of support for our immigrant neighbors is heartwarming.
We're on track for a 2,000 whistle day tomorrow.

That's 2,000 MORE neighbors getting whistles to help protect our community.

We are overwhelmed in the best way.

Neighbors: if you need 1-2 whistles, please pick them up at one of these great neighborhood businesses hosting whistles!

Also a reminder that this account isn’t a Rapid Response account!

If you witness ICE activity, call Monarca 612-441-2881. The number can also accept texts.

Here’s a guide to reporting:

Twin Cities- it’s day 6 of the federal occupation.

Today’s assignment:

1. Keep defending our neighbors. We are hearing inspiring stories every day of abductions disrupted.

2. Check on your neighbors who may be terrified.

3. Spend some money in an immigrant owned business.

We just opened a box of thousands of 3D printed whistles sent to us by comrades from other cities.

Thank you, 3D printer friends. We cried. Community care from far and wide.

This week we are averaging 750-1000 whistles distributed per day- and those are just the ones our volunteers are providing and coordinating.

Be safe, form a crowd, and BLOW THOSE WHISTLES.

We are grateful for everyone who has answered a call, shared a tip, joined neighbors to whistle or honk at ICE agents to warn community.
Across the Twin Cities residents are volunteering to make ICE’s job in Minnesota as difficult as possible. ICE watchers say the ultimate goal is to prevent ICE agents from arresting, jailing and deporting their neighbors.
‘Tinted windows and out-of-state plates’: How ICE watchers look for agents in their neighborhoods
Across the Twin Cities, ICE agents and activists are playing a high stakes cat-and-mouse game. The goal is to make their job as difficult as possible, and protect their immigrant neighbors.

Today (Saturday 10/6)
Twin Cities! More than 1000 of you showed up last night for virtual training- this Saturday come to the follow up.

Today (Saturday 12/6) 1-3:30. Dm for location.
Neighbors, we are still (wonderfully) overwhelmed by the requests and support.

Tomorrow (Saturday) we're having a zine folding party from 1-3:30pm.

DM for the location - it's a public space in South Minneapolis on public transit.

Come fold zines that will go straight out into the community!

Neighbors - you do not need anyone's permission to sound your whistle when you spot ICE. Nor do you need to attend a whistle training first. Here's everything you need to know.

Update from superintendent:

"MPRB will fully adhere to and follow Mayor Frey’s Executive Order 2025-02 dealing with Immigration and Customer Enforcement (ICE) presence in our city and prohibit any MPRB parking lot from being used to stage civil immigration enforcement operations."
I've had a lot of people reach out about the presence of ICE on park board property. Unfortunately, they are legally allowed to be on our land because it is completely public. This is a gross abuse of the sanctity of our parks and can't be tolerated.

We will do all we can to keep these spaces safe.

If you need to order bulk whistles, please DM us here or on Instagram - we're pushing whistles out the door as fast as we can!

Turn the sound on, and listen to all those whistles.

Twin Cities- it’s been another day with extreme ICE activity in our neighborhoods.

Despite the best efforts of rapid response teams, we sometimes got there too late to prevent kidnappings.

And we had some successes- multiple kidnapping attempts were prevented by the organizing of neighbors.

Re-upping this. At least one attempted abduction was stopped this morning by bystanders with whistles.

Organize your community, and show ICE how cold Minnesota can be.
This morning we know that the Twin Cities are on edge.

Carry your whistle, be ready to respond.

Organize with your neighbors- your building, block, or neighborhood.

Together, we can help keep our neighbors safe.

Love to everyone out there protecting our community.

Brutal day in Minneapolis, but there were some shining moments of neighbors stopping some abductions, kicking Nazis out of some spaces, chasing them out of others. And there were about 1,000 ppl on an excellent ICE WATCH training zoom led by States At The Center and Protect Rogers Park in Chicago.
