When you run into friends, neighbors and coworkers at a memorial, when you show up to help and run into so many other helpers, when someone you’ve never met before hugs you in thanks, it highlights the absolute best parts of humanity. We keep each other safe.

More than 34,000 Minnesotans signed up to be trained as ICED observers with various activist groups in recent weeks, many of them since Jan. 7, when a federal agent shot and killed Renée Good.

Barely holding it together while I let my son play five more minutes of Zelda before we go grocery shopping for his schoolmate’s family who’s afraid to leave the house. I don’t know what we’re supposed to do either
I found out when I picking up ice for the cooler with the juice boxes for my kid's fourth birthday party today. I went back to the car and he was laughing hysterically over my window scraper. How are we supposed to do this? But if we love our kids, how are we supposed to let their friends get taken?

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.

Research into how violence occurs shows that disapproval from the people around you can help reduce it.
