Until recently I hadn’t realised Minnesota has a radical tradition that traces back to the receipt of immigrants fleeing the failed 1848 revolutions in Europe. This anti-ICE movement recounted in this article shows that tradition is going strong
“Minneapolis learned a lot from the George Floyd protests and it shows. Well before Kristi Noem announced DHS operations in Minnesota, the neighborhood got ready.” New: a dispatch on mutual aid in South Minneapolis.

Who funds the Free Speech Union?
Toby Young’s outfit went to court to hide its donors. Today we reveal that funders include US anti-abortion groups, Brexit politicians and Tufton Street insiders.

Using imagery online of the shooting by an ICE agent in Minneapolis, we’ve created an animated sequence which highlights the approximate positioning of officers and vehicles at the scene. The red dot represents the agent who fired the shots. Yellow dots are other agents who arrived at the scene.
