A real-time oral history of the ICE assault on Minnesota
"Once again, Minnesota is the center of attention, and for reasons we’d rather not be.Â
Masked federal agents are invading our towns, snatching up our neighbors who look Latino or African or Asian, and dousing our neighborhoods in tear gas. They're raiding and staking out schools and daycares, pulling people out of cars (which are left abandoned on the roads), and sending people into hiding. Schools and businesses are shutting down for safety reasons.
There has been excellent coverage of this crisis from both local and national media. But we wanted to amplify the voices of ordinary Minnesotans, to hear how the ICE occupation has changed their lives. And we wanted the world outside of Minnesota to hear from them.Â
We asked people for their stories, and we were flooded with responses." -Keith Harris
