Rise Up for Students stands in solidarity with the people of Minnesota as they are besieged by violent ICE stormtroopers and a violent ideology. We stand with immigrants and refugees, and with all people resisting oppression around the world. Today we heed the call from Minneapolis for a National Shutdown. Here’s an audio clip of ICY horrors, and an interview with an organizer in Minneapolis. All power to the people.
