Rewarding ICE agents for arrests — even if the person is released without charges — is leading to chaos in the streets and Constitutional rights being violated. This isn’t making us safer.

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.

I’ve seen human rights observer used lately and that’s way more accurate than “protestor.” They framed it as some sort of trad protest interaction or confrontation here too in Chicago and that’s not correct.

Don't just use the library because it helps you (even though it does).
Use the library because doing that keeps the library open for other people.

Go after the companies if you don’t like it, but leave the workers alone.
