This is probably the story that has stuck with me the most over the last few weeks, because it's so heartbreaking and horrifying and so clearly represents thousands of personal traumas happening away from the cameras
How an errand for a 12-year-old immigrant in Minneapolis became an underground operation
Some immigrants in Minneapolis have said they're scared to go out because of ICE agents across the city. When one 12-year-old needed to run an errand, it triggered a network of underground volunteers.

If only our state and national electeds could summon an ounce of the courage and resolve of Jason and a few of the other mpls CM
You’re describing an emergency. The world is also watching you and waiting for you to do something.
Are you going to establish an eviction moratorium? Rent is due today.

They’re taking kids from Minnesota and sending them to detention camps. They’re shooting American citizens in the street and locking investigators out of the crime scenes. The world is watching what happens next.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Unclear to me if this fucking five year old kid getting kidnapped is breaking through outside of the Twin Cities and I don’t want to speak for anyone else but this has really steeled my resolve. This shit cannot be allowed to stand.

seems the courageous people of minnesota have not considered that the solution to the paramilitary occupiers terrorizing your neighborhood is to get another DFLer to hold a press conference telling ICE to kidnap people nicely or leave. yeah it hasn't worked so far, it takes a few tries, you'll see

This was in North Minneapolis a few nights ago, same time they shot another Mpls resident.
"DHS deleted this one because: The family was driving home and got blocked; ICE deployed flashbangs and tear gas INSIDE the car; The 6-month old child stopped breathing and had to be rushed to hospital."

you know this guy is a FOR REAL photographer because he's telling the story of his brutal, unconditional arrest by federal goons and can't help but slip in a gear review
Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.
