If you’re outside MN, you’re probably seeing a tenth of what’s happening here under ICE. I’m joining with other book-ish folks this week to donate to Community Aid Network Minnesota (CANMN). They distribute food/diapers to families who need them. Please join us in supporting our neighbors.

“The entire operation is becoming slower and more resource-intensive. There is good reason to believe that more immigrants are with their families tonight because of ICE Watch”
Opinion | I'm a Minneapolis sociologist who studies violence. Here's how ICE observers are helping.
Research into how violence occurs shows that disapproval from the people around you can help reduce it.

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports.
And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.”
Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

Can we work on the narrative that protestors not only have the right to bear witness & disrupt the actions of a corrupt government, but they ALSO have the right to bear arms against it.

Very cool that there are lots of people in the US who have been brainwashed to believe that the appropriate punishment for disobeying an “officer” is being abused, injured, blinded, or murdered. This POV will most certainly lead to a better America.
NYTimes has truly outdone itself with this latest in its "ask white guys in diner" genre.
