Tonight's presenter had to cancel, so I'm pinch hitting.
If you'd like to hear me talk about fighting fascists as an avgeek, I'll see you at the library in Downtown Minneapolis in a few hours!
Yesterday was amazing. Let's take that energy and focus it on making real change. TOMORROW, we kick off a spring lecture series, beginning with a presentation by FreeMN on how citizens can fight fascism.
Monday, 3/30
5:30 - 7:30pm, doors open 5pm
Minneapolis Central Library
Pohlad Hall (2nd floor)
We are SO ready for No Kings - tomorrow, March 28th!
March from Harriet Island, St. Paul College, or Western Sculpture Garden!
Finally some credible numbers? Showing about 3,800 people, you say? Huh.
Our volunteers counted 19 ICE detainees being loaded onto an Eastern Air Express ICE flight at MSP today; Delta may have flown more children to Texas, but that's much harder to keep tabs on.

Thanks to a FOIA lawsuit from @deportationdata.org, Minnesota is getting its first credible numbers on arrests during the federal government's surge here this winter. About 3,800 Minnesota residents were arrested. Most from Latin America (only 106 from Somalia). (1)
