ICE broke down the door of an American citizen, aimed a gun at his daughter’s head, threatened the family, forced him outside without proper clothing, and then said, ‘wrong man.’ This is American fascism.

Killed on 20th January 1973. Through his biography, his own words & the music of those who remember him, I invite us once again to think critically about what decolonisation means through the life of a man who lived and died for it. Long live Amilcar Cabral.

It was bound to happen. Take some idiot of the street, put him in uniform and give him a gun. And total protection. What could possibly go wrong?

According to witnesses, this is the masked ICE agent who shot the driver in Minneapolis. He shot from the side into the vehicle.

This is him walking away from the crashed vehicle.

After Renee Good, hemorrhaging blood, crashed her car, a man from the neighborhood approached and said, "Let me take vitals and help. I'm a physician."

According to a witness, ICE responded, "We don't care. Stay back." And they blocked him.

These people are stone-cold monsters.
