Given the headlines about Alex Pretti, I think it’s important to remind people that tens of thousands (if not more) ICE observers are in the Twin Cities and the vast majority are making it home every night.

The violence is meant to intimidate, but they can’t go after a whole community.
Guys maybe the number one obstacle to organizing here in Minneapolis is the unfounded fear that if you get involved, DHS will put you on a list and assassinate you. It leads people to avoid organizing or act in ways that are completely detrimental to organizing. Please please do not spread that fear

They broke his rib a week before, and he was back out there protecting his neighbors when they murdered him.
CNN reporting that a week before Alex Pretti was killed, 5 agents tackled him and he suffered a broken rib. CNN says he stopped his car after he saw ICE agents interacting with a family on foot and began to blow his whistle. Source tells CNN Pretti believed “That day he thought he was going to die”

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

We still don't know the names of the ICE agents who killed Gonzàlez behind the wheel of his car outside Chicago in September.

They were unmasked in this BWC footage from Franklin Park police.

If you have any information at all about these men—please text us on Signal at unraveled.66

The fact that most of what is happening is “care work”—skills like low dollar fundraising/aid, carpool mom, and generally looking out for your neighbor makes it anathema to charisma- / individual-driven spokespeople. Care work is pretty revolutionary, but no one is in charge.
The majority of organizing happening in Minnesota isn’t just peaceful, it’s INVISIBLE. Moms showing up who won’t be interviewed on TV, people whose ICE patrols don’t turn into viral video. The grocery runs, the donations, the people filming bc they happen to be there. Please remember this.

🎯 The people organizing in MSP aren't paid. They're the ones who get your kids to every doc appt, sports practice & music lesson, get costumes for plays/holidays, volunteer in classrooms, coordinate kid-swaps on snow days w/other working moms & know all your kids friends' allergies & fave snacks.
There are a lot of men out there who do not see any of the logistics happening around them and they're like "wait, where the fuck did these hand warmers come from?"

Look at every kid wearing mittens, and that's your answer. From the people who have been silently keeping hands warm for centuries.

Cannot stress enough that you can just do stuff. You don't need permission. You can just do stuff because it needs to be done by someone.

All of us need to pitch in.

Can you bring over coffee and shoot the shit with your buddy?

Can you help clean their house a little? Run a load of groceries over?

Can you listen to your friend? Have a movie night? Make some tea?

This is heavy work and we need each other.

This is Minneapolis:

I am SO behind on *every* basic life chore: grocery shopping, cleaning, laundry, errands.

Today I'm doing laundry for a neighbor family, who has been too afraid to leave to go to the laundromat for 6 weeks.

Maybe after that I will have energy to do my own family's laundry.

One of the stories that makes me the saddest out of this ICE invasion is one out of the Minnesota Star Tribune today about ICE agents eating at a little Mexican restaurant in the small town of Willmar, Minn, —and then, when they were done, arresting some of the workers.

Solidarity doesn’t mean I have to like you. Community is uncomfortable, annoying, beautiful, and necessary.
