15 year-old high schooler and student organiser Zaire spoke at a Press Conference at the Atlanta Liberation Centere:
"Students are facing threats of suspension and intimidation for organising walkouts. Why are we being punished for doing the right thing while ICE gets to act with impunity and is murdering so many in the streets?"

Time for a protest round up!
Starting, of course, with some words from the streets of Minnesota.
"The Alex Pretti shooting was a public execution. There's no other way to put it. The working class are the majority, and if we want to not have a society where few exploit many for a gain they don't really need, then the many need to take power."

βHow about since Trump dislikes #Minnesota so bad and weβre so out of control, letβs join Canada. Instead of Canada becoming the [fifty-first] state of America and lose their healthcare....

βICE conveyor beltβ illegally detaining, moving Minnesota children to Texas faster than courts can respond
"Iβve been pepper sprayed and tear-gassed three times now. I carry a gas mask around with me. Iβve been shoved, threatened, insulted by ICE while wearing my clergy collar, as a white woman. Our neighbors are in hiding -- plenty of whom have a legal right to be in the country, but that doesnβt matter to ICE. They are detaining those with legal status, even Native Americans."
~ Susie Hd, quoted by Holly Berkley Fletcher
"We all owe a debt of gratitude to the resilient and principled stance of the people of Minneapolis and the state of Minnesota who have remained undeterred. They have fought for their neighbors and for themselves. They have stood in proud defense of their city, and their right to peacefully protest. The organizers on the ground have been extraordinary."

The chief federal judge in #Minnesota says the #Trump admin has failed to comply with orders to hold hearings for detained immigrants & ordered the head of #ICE to appear Friday to explain why he shouldnβt be held in #contempt.
In an order Monday, Chief Judge Patrick J. Schiltz said #ToddLyons, the acting director of ICE, must appear personally in court. Schlitz took the admin to task over its handling of bond hearings for immigrants it has detained.

Just open the site and you get a real on-the-ground sense of what's unfolding.
As my friend writes, though, "the abusiveness and cruelty run deep in our culture, but the courage and generativity of loving kindness run far deeper and widerβ¦."

The Guardian: US immigration agents detain two-year-old Minnesota girl: βdepravity beyond wordsβ
"...The father, identified in court filings as Elvis Joel TE, and his daughter were stopped and detained by officers around 1pm when they were returning home from the store. By the evening, a federal judge had ordered the girl be released by 9.30pm. But federal officials instead put both of them on a plane heading to a Texas detention center...."

When an ICE agent had a seizure in Minneapolis on Jan. 22, the two women in his custody were the ones who helped him. The Star Tribune reports on how 39-year-old kindergarten teacher Tippy Amundson, and 55-year-old personal care attendant Heather Zemien told the driver of the SUV they were held in to call 911, asked to be uncuffed, and kept the ICE agent's airway clear and his head cradled as he had a second seizure. After the agent was transferred to medical care, Amundson and Zemien were taken to Whipple Federal Building where a commanding officer eventually told them: "Weβre releasing you to your counsel and to your state representative ... But you need to tell everybody that we treated you kindly.β

You canβt detain a 5 year old child.
If a masked man grabs a kid off the street and puts him in an unmarked carβ¦ thatβs kidnapping.
If that child is then sent to another state? Thatβs trafficking.

Sunrise over Lake Superior from Minnesota's North Shore this morning. It was -18Β°F (-27.8Β°C). I love the sea smoke that the cold temps create and the ice formations in the foreground were wild.
