I just learned that Northside Mutual Aid (supporting North Minneapolis families impacted by ICE) is still trying to meet $80,000 in rent needs from FEBRUARY.
Can we move some funds in their direction? 🌻
I fucking love my country of Minneapolis
Yeah, dunking on strangers on the internet is fun, but have you tried meeting people in your actual community and showing up to organize and make your communities better?
I keep thinking about the people for whom $400K is a small number and how they are the reason people for whom it is a very big number have to hustle like this
Please keep circulating this so that people who have $500 to spare see it
I went through and added up the total paid rents through our adopt-a-rent program, and it is 329 families for $463,217. All peer-to-peer, no fundraising. Just neighbors helping each other out.
If you want to adopt a family, and can afford to give $500 or more, signal me at asiniiwiikwe.72
Just got a message from South High saying “We currently have requests totaling $33,965 for rent and we have $7500 available tomorrow. Please try to share the gofundme widely! Thanks”
Well, that simply will not do. I'll match the first $900. Please help my fellow South High families if you can! 🖤🧡🖤
It’s not just Medicaid funding they’re withholding to MN. It’s food assistance, child care assistance, social services, job training, safety testing, public health, disaster relief. SNAP. Free lunch for kids in school.
They hate us for loving our neighbors, and are collectively punishing us for it.
😂😂😂🤌🏻
Less than $900 to go!!!!!

Hi all. Today I’m sharing @arise.bsky.social’s GFM to get his car repaired. 🌻🌻🌻
Many of us can MEGA VOUCH for his work in the community, especially at GFS. He needs his car for work and for the care he provides the community.

Y'all may have heard about the incident last week where ICE agents pretended to have car trouble to lure someone from his house so they could abduct him. Here is the GoFundMe for his family. www.gofundme.com/f/support-th...
They aren’t going anywhere.

as the MMIR march in minneapolis went down franklin ave under a bridge where the sidewalks are all fenced off, an unhoused man stood next to his tent, filming the march and holding his fist up. nearby graffiti reads “we are human also.”
People line up on a sidewalk at dusk in a line, holding lighted candles.
Happening now on 50th Street in Minneapolis. Lined up over a ten block stretch.
Farmers from up north of Duluth sent two pickup trucks full of eggs and meat and food to us for mutual aid distribution.
I cried.
People are so good.
I would also add it’s going to get increasingly tough to meet the mutual aid demands (covering rent, chiefly) without continued wide support that national coverage can help generate.
Child at the podium: “A woo woo woo.”
Mamdani: That’s how I felt when we came up with this plan. Together, we will expand the idea of what is possible in our city—and what sounds and noises we can make at a press conference.
I gotchu
Also, this
That was awesome to watch 😂 🚀🪐
It’s ICE and CBP hiding their identities, not everyday Minnesotans outside with their whistles and their neighbors saying, “Fuck ICE!” with our whole chests!
😎
Thank you so much! This means the world to me. 🙏🏻
Read the details of Andy's work in the gofundme link. He's done a lot to help out those in his community for years now, even pre-pandemic. This is exactly the kind of thing we encourage people to do, just jump in and do whatever you can to help others.
That part.
THANK YOU SO MUCH! WE’RE NOT WORTHY!!!
Thank you!!! 🙏🏻
Thank you so much!!!
