"Right now feels impossible, and unfortunately there's a lot of impossible still to come. There's no fast fix, no one easy trick to defeating #fascism.

But.

But honestly I've never felt more hopeful that we actually have what it takes. That we can do the impossible, even when it seems insurmountable.

Because what it takes is us."

Text from article:
Minneapolis needs your help, your money, your supplies, absolutely right now. But so does the community you live in.

We are all we have and the more you do, today, to reach out in your neighbors, your town, your community, the better off everyone is.

Labor unions, community leaders and faith groups are calling for an #economic #blackout in Minnesota-on Friday
to protest the surge of federal immigration agents in the state
and mourn Renee Good.
Organizers are urging Minnesotans not to work, shop or go to school.

The Trump administration has dispatched some 3,000 federal agents to the state,
in what it claims amounts to its largest enforcement operation thus far,
amid a national crackdown on immigration.
More than 2,400 people in Minnesota have been arrested in recent weeks.
An Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer fatally shot Good, 37, in Minneapolis earlier this month.
