"The #resistance to #ICE in #Minneapolis is strong, generalized, and sustained. It’s also entirely #decentralized and #leaderless (or “leaderful” if you’d like). There are roles. There is #organizing—there’s so much organizing. There are so many organizers, from so many #communities and identities.

This, of course, makes my heart happy.

It’s also, I’m certain, frustrating as hell for the #Federal #occupation of the city. They want to pick off a few people and bring them up on charges. That might still happen, but it will be a farce of a trial. If there’s a conspiracy, it’s the entire city conspiring to be free. ... This is a #rebellion against what amounts to foreign occupation."
