Group of middle-to-retirement age women came into the restaurant I was getting lunch at just down the street from the ICE church in St. Paul, and asked the guy behind the counter about the general strike, and if they could help in any way. They had literature and everything. It ruled.

When people get a glimpse of what ordinary people in Minneapolis are doing, I think they may not be aware that it is the culmination of lessons learned from last year’s invasions of other cities & from organizing that occurred locally in 2020 www.liberalcurrents.com/we-have-orga...

People here are outside patrolling their neighborhoods in this, trying to keep their neighbors safe from lawless armed masked goons. Armed with whistles and vests, they are essentially fighting a war against their own government and its ethnic cleansing campaign.

Minneapolis and Saint Paul have basically mobilized into a war economy of mutual aid and non-violent defense. I’ve never seen anything like it, even during Covid. People who barely vote are guarding their schools from ICE and doing the shopping for neighbors in hiding.
This is so smart. I’m so impressed with all the different ways you’re helping your neighbors.

A buddy in MN shared a drawing a classmate of his kid made. They've been making thank you notes for parents who have volunteered to carpool them to school so their own parents don't have to risk waiting out by the bus stop.
