Each year, Wisconsin’s Tribal Nations gather at the Capitol to share their vision and priorities with state leaders. The State of the Tribes Address is an important tradition that honors Tribal sovereignty and helps strengthen the relationship between our state and Native communities.

Bad Bunny's historical advisor is an assistant professor at UW-Madison.

Hell of a flex for your tenure file.

Not at all surprised to learn that Bad Bunny has a historical adviser. His halftime show was a reminder that our history and culture are deeply intertwined with the rest of the western hemisphere. We should think of his performance as part of #America250. #SuperBowl

Pop star Bad Bunny needed a Puerto Rican history scholar. UW–Madison had just the one.
Bad Bunny collaborated with UW–Madison history professor Jorell Meléndez-Badillo on Puerto Rican narratives that accompany the new album “DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS.”

in Milwaukee a hundred years ago the German language was so prevalent that shops had to put up signs indicating that they also spoke English

We need to forbid law enforcement from using facial recognition tech *and* other private data like this. Full stop.

Because if they have access, you can bet ICE and CBP do too.

"The sheer number of Epstein’s connections to the rulers of our world is dizzying," writes @moiradonegan.bsky.social. "So, too...is the willingness of his circle to continue their relationships with him despite his convictions for sex crimes..."

South Tucson Mayor Roxy Valenzuela rejects calls to increase policing as a response to rising homelessness.

“Sometimes the best people to offer those resources are not the cops — it can be a community member or a clinician,” she says.
Facing Arizona’s Crackdown on Homelessness, Two Cities Offer Different Responses
State intervention has led Tucson to ramp up sweeps and pass harsh new policies. Officials in the small town of South Tucson have emphasized support and services, even as they face blowback.

man I’m sorry to be all corny here but when I see a “the city is beautiful! There’s more to it than homeless people!” I gotta say you know who’s also beautiful? People who have no place to live & are trying to get by in a system that has turned its back on them & if you don’t see that that’s on you

message from MN
From a Comrade 19h. C One of the nuts things about organizing in the Twin Cities right now is that even the most long term organizers who've been here for decades can't keep track of all the resistance that is going on. There are so many self-organized crews just doing work that in any conversation with someone from another neighborhood you might stumble over a whole collective of people resisting in ways you didn't think of. There's a crew of carpenters just going around fixing kicked-in doors. There are tow truck drivers taking cars of detained people away for free. People delivering food to families in hiding. So many local rapid response groups that the number is uncertain but somewhere between 80 and the low hundreds- especially when one considers that several immigrant communities have their own non-English rapid response networks usually uncounted in the main English-language directories. People standing watch outside daycares and schools. This whole resistance has so many poles of initiative and leadership, so many layers of self-organization, that it's extraordinarily difficult for the state to repress or for opportunists be they Democrats or movement-riding parties) to co-opt and control. Of course, that's built up through many years and decades of organization, and not only through explicitiv political campaigns or formations built during times of crisis and rupture like 2020. It is also built through day-to-day mutual aid, culture building, workplace and tenant organizing, and simple, basic relationship building among neighbors and coworkers here. From a Comrade 19h.

“Renee was not the first person killed, and she was not the last,” Becca Good said. “You know my wife’s name and you know Alex’s name, but there are many others in this city being harmed that you don’t know — their families are hurting just like mine, even if they don’t look like mine.”
Renee Good's partner addresses Minneapolis immigration crackdown one month after killing
Becca Good has seldom spoken out since Renee Good was shot and killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis on Jan. 7.

We’re not in the clear. It’s still important to be cautious, careful, and vigilant. ICE vehicles were spotted across Minneapolis today.

At our town hall on Tuesday, one resident, clearly shaken about ICE, noted that she now carries her documents with her wherever she goes. Her statement, "I'm relying on each of you to keep me safe," was from her heart, and is something I'm carrying with me and reflecting on frequently.

Really seems like a big part of Homan’s strategy in Minnesota is just telling people ICE is drawing down to trick folks into being less vigilant.

Not enough. Every single ICE and CBP agent should be out of Minnesota. The terror campaign must stop.

ICE must be abolished.

Trump’s “softer tone” is a ruse. ICE is still brutalizing the Twin Cities.

I’m on the scene at Franklin and 1st. A convoy of about a couple dozen ICE/HSI agents broke the entryway into an apartment building at 6am. No warrant presented. Less than 24 hours ago, Tom Homan announced the end of large convoys in Minnesota… Bullshit.
