I know in my heart that the Siege of Minneapolis will go down as one of the biggest political blunders/grossest abuses of federal power in American history. Just a matter how long that consensus takes. Next week? Next year? Next decade?

Minnesota was already a great place to live. This moment strengthening our community bonds and shared identity will take that to another level. We're forever changed, in a way that only could only come from banding together to look out for vulnerable neighbors in the face of evil.
ICE and MAGA really did bet the farm on all of Minneapolis’s white people going “oh yes, please take away our disgusting, evil non-white-foreigner neighbors, oh thank you so much.”

it’s beautiful that they’ve been proven incredibly wrong about that - may the rest of the country do the same.

Did this Friday at Midway; it was great. There's a toolkit with the flier mentioned in the image. You should do this too! 5 pm, tomorrow--5 Targets; pick the one closest to you.
The people buying salt at Target? (Slowly?)

Then returning it? (Slowly)

I love you!

No. We don’t need to “modify ICE training.” We need to close DHS. Dismantle it. It’s an outdated expensive bureaucracy that’s been usurped by violent white supremacists. Shut it down.

Instead of going to Target, Cub Foods, and Corporate chains please support small and locally owned grocery stores in cultural corridors.

@elliottpayne.org, @kayforparks.bsky.social, and I heard from businesses today who are barley making it by. Some are already getting eviction letters.
The solidarity between our communities in Minneapolis has never been stronger. You can help by replacing your trips at Target and do your shopping at immigrant owned businesses on our cultural corridors instead.

“How to Talk Minnesotan” is intended to be comedic but I recommend it for every autistic transplant, because no one will explain any of this to you, they’ll just get mad at you and you won’t know why. This outright just tells you the unspoken rules and everything makes so much more sense after that
This is light-hearted and doesn't touch on cases of fuckaroundits, but maybe it'll spark joy. Mid 90s local PBS.

This is truly a matter of survival for people. Our city/parks/county/state have not stepped up to address the needs of so many- please know some of us are pushing as hard as we can but the system has been stacked against us for years. The way our resources are allocated do not help all who need it.

Our community is in peril. Our neighbors need our help in this time of ICE presence and subzero temperatures.

Mpls has a shortage of available shelter for residents, and our city govt has not developed adequate resources to humanely house people.

Please support MIWRC in this time of emergency.

For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention.

The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.
Opinion | I'm a Minneapolis sociologist who studies violence. Here's how ICE observers are helping.
Research into how violence occurs shows that disapproval from the people around you can help reduce it.

ICE has kidnapped so many people from their cars that the city had to put out this statement. Let that sink in.
Vehicles that are abandoned due to an ICE detention and towed to the City's impound lot will be released to their owners or a representative at no cost.
