An excellent article about how protestors and community organizers across Minnesota are rising to meet the moment and look out for the people around them. As great as it was to see how many people turned out for the No Kings protests earlier this year, the Minnesotans who are taking part in neighborhood ICE-watches and organizing food drives for their neighbors are an inspiring example of how to take grassroots organization to the next level.
Amidst all the bleak headlines that have been dominating the news cycle for the past year, stories such as this one are important and inspiring for highlighting the ways in which normal people are standing up for their communities. The anti-ICE protestors and organizers in Minnesota are, in my opinion, a shining example of the best of America, and I hope they can serve as a model for how we the people can respond the next time ICE gets sent to terrorize our neighborhoods.
