Minneapolis City Council President. He/Him
ICE just confronted us in our car saying it’s our first & final warning. There’s nothing illegal about driving your car safely on Stinson, Lowry, or any street in our community.
They are purposefully surging at school get out times terrorizing our families. Ice needs to stay away from our kids.

ICE just indiscriminately stopped a citizen at a bus stop in front of the co-op. If this is how they treat the President of the Minneapolis City Council who is legally observing, just think of what they’re doing to everyone else in our City.

There’s reports that there will be 1,000 more agents coming to our city. We need that same surge in residents out patrolling our streets. Even if you can’t patrol, come work from a coffee shop on one of cultural corridors so you can be there to show up for our neighbors.

We just filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration to stop this illegal occupation of our City.
We can’t let this unconstitutional assault on our neighbors happen without a fight, which is why we’re taking them to court. Stay out in the streets looking out for our neighbors & stay vigilant.

There’s lots of ways to get involved and support your neighbors if you’re not able to be out patrolling. Reach out to your local school or community members you know are plugged in and get involved.

2 more people were taken on Central Ave tonight. People at Pilllar Forum went to legally observe and then were maced, pepper sprayed, and beaten by ICE.
Corey from Pilllar is talking about the impact ICE terrorizing our community is having on his business, staff, and our neighbors.

If you’re wondering the impact of community patrol, ICE just tried to take one of our residents on 23rd and Central and because so many community members responded, we stopped them and ICE left.

We can’t trust the federal government to investigate themselves. We need the BCA to be apart of the investigation.
Renee Nicole Good should be alive and her family and our whole community deserves justice and accountability after Jonathan Ross and ICE killed her in our streets.
