To everyone else: REMEMBER ICE LIES ABOUT EVERYTHING. THIS IS DOCUMENTED.
"You gonna murder someone else? You can't kill us all, Nazis."
A US citizen has apparently been shot by ICE agents in Minneapolis. I’m gathering information, but the situation on the ground is volatile.

You know the party has nothing and the county chairs so far have no clue. But we can totally go to a happy hour.

They canceled my work on race and media.
So I built a @resistanceschool.bsky.social instead.
Now we are teaching over 600 students.
Week 2 of Race, Media and International Affairs starts today.
We move ✊🏾💪🏾

Spoiler Jas, we can’t. I’ll message later or shoot me a note.
Going to message and email you. We in trouble girl. Urgently. Thx

Tonight, I'll go home and sleep in my bed. I have a lawyer, I'll get due process.
But Edgardo, whose arm was ripped from mine by ICE agents, has none of those things.
