New — On X the Minneapolis PD said they were only present at the ICE raid protest "to ensure the crowd and the surrounding area remained safe," but photos shared directly with me show Police Chief Brian O'Hara personally escorting federal agents off Lake Street where protest took place.
Way to go Minneapolis! “Officers wearing the uniforms of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Drug Enforcement Administration, Minneapolis Police Dept, Hennepin County Sheriff’s Office, the FBI, and the criminal investigation arm of the IRS surrounded Las Cuatro Milpas on East Lake Street.”🧵 [contains quote post or other embedded content]
So, inspired by this post from a couple of days ago: https://lemmy.world/post/29717119 I made a punk song out of the poem! Since the poem is so old, and almost certainly in the public domain (I did some research, couldn't find much about it), I decided to release the song for free! You can download it out now! https://bandwagon.fm/6827ded167d89ec13b5b64c3 Or just listen to it, if permanence isn't your thing lol
Anyways, I had a lot of fun making it, so I hope you have a lot of fun hearing it! Enjoy!
