As our communities prepare for another night please remember to check in with your groups and pods. I will be out tonight with the Little Earth Protectors and please do not hesitate to reach out to me if you need help. Be safe and stay vigilant.

The only way forward is abolishing the police. No institution should be allowed to murder in our communities with impunity. As a mother my prayers are with Daunte Wright and his family. He should be alive right now.

"Most of us have had bad experiences with shelters. They get you under their thumb, they treat you like children. I literally would rather take a chance on hypothermia than go back to the shelter. That's how a lot of us feel."

I’m deeply disgusted by the police violence our unhoused neighbors at the Near North encampment experienced this morning.
MPD continues to evict and brutalize Black, brown and Native folks on stolen land.
Twin Cities Encampment Responders@TCparkresponder
Dozens of squad cars and cops armed with mace are currently at Near North brutalizing and arresting people. No words.

Today I am grieving with our Asian American neighbors. I condemn anti-Asian hate crimes and I know this is not an isolated attack. I am committed to working with the Asian American community as we fight for our shared goal of liberation to end all forms of violence.

Bodies are needed to support our unhoused relatives.

Rita and Sam are strong leaders for the community and have been for decades. They have done lots together helping our houseless relatives which makes me excited to see the great work they will do in city hall.
