We hope the good people of #SanFrancisco will forgive us for adapting a song about their city in 1967 to address the shocking and tragic events in #Minnesota in recent weeks. This is dedicated to Renée Good and Alex Pretti, and in solidarity. Our version is called "Minnesota" ❤️

Corridor care isn’t a stopgap. It’s a harm.
This is not safe. It is not acceptable. And it should never be normalised.
