Tomorrow is my #birthday & I'd love your support for mutual aid needed for my neighborhoods here in North #Minneapolis. This is direct rental assistance to families impacted by ICE.
I'm turning 54. If I can get 54 donations, I'll have a very Happy Birthday w neighbors staying in their homes.

We in #Minneapolis have a fundamental #humanright to exist and to move freely about the streets of our city, just like all other residents of #America. It's universal standard practice that there be a legitimate investigation when any of us are deprived of that right and killed by law enforcement.

They even had a display of Prince books. So I had to check one out. These are the amazing things that helped me adopt Minneapolis as my home and keep us on the Northside. The newly renovated branch had wonderful meeting spaces that allowed me to work remotely for the morning.

Started a great career w Hennepin County. Been to Paisley Park. The whole lot. But something super special happened today when the Hennepin Library system issued their Prince library card. I got up early and was the 1st to get one at his old local library branch (Sumner). The staff were excited too.

Not sure if you are asking if DeWayne will march in the parade or if Fateh will. For the record, DeWayne and this campaign had our own contingent in the 2025 Twin Cities Pride Parade. This election can finally let Minneapolis have an Out Gay Mayor! 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️✊🏽
