There are many ways to make a difference, from calling your local representatives, supporting your community and local aid organizations, and checking in on friends and neighbors, to taking part in peaceful demonstrations. No act of care, big or small, is without meaning.

For those who can, here are links to donate directly to local efforts on the ground resisting ICE's terrorizing of Minneapolis. Let me know what you donated to where, and I'll match it until I get a panicked call from my bank!
