brass solidarity band performing “stand by me” in the streets of whittier next to alex pretti’s memorial. the crowd started chanting “the people united will never be defeated” so they incorporated it into the song. i love minneapolis
Amid these dark moments, something important is beginning to shift.

Hard to watch but critical evidence. Save it somewhere and commit to #DefundFascism by delaying federal taxes, boycotting big businesses/ buying only necessities, slowing/ stopping productivity/ work, and strengthening mutual aid. Grow edible plants.
The man murdered by ICE in Minneapolis, Minnesota while he bravely shielded women from being brutally attacked by Trump regime thugs has been identified as Alex Pretti.

ICE Trump regime agents kidnapped a 17 year old boy working at Target, the regime thugs beat and tortured him then dropped him off 9 minutes away from his job site when they realized he was a US citizen, he was bloodied and bruised when witnesses helped him.

"No law enforcement professional wears a mask... Those that come into our communities wearing a mask to commit crime... You getting arrested".
