"Bruce Springsteen and Tom Morello Rouse Anti-Fascist Fervor at First Ave
Fists were pumped, tears were cried, and 'fuck' was shouted at the Minneapolis anti-ICE rally we all needed.
Admit it—you feel a little goofy when you cheer in response to a musician shouting out Minneapolis or St. Paul or Minnesota from the stage. It’s a good kind of goofy, no doubt, all part of the fun of going to a gig. But we’re aware and so are they that everyone’s participating in a ritual. No matter how special they say we are, we know they say that to all the cities.
But every shout out to Minneapolis and Minnesota at the 'Defend Minnesota' concert at First Avenue Friday afternoon felt like genuine recognition, and was received as such. Minnesota had earned it, through the disciplined and dogged resistance of our community to a violent federal occupation."
