The most hopeful thing I read this week was an account from a Minneapolis resident, Winston Hearn, of the mutual aid networks and bravery and love breaking out across the Twin Cities, despite it all. I loved this description of patrols and attempts to disrupt ICE (and I watched the linked video at least five times):
There are patrols in every neighborhood, at every school, watching for the unmarked cars that suggest the paramilitary terrorists are coming. Those patrols are supported by people who can check tags, relay information, track in real time through trusted networks. When ICE agents get brave enough to step out of their cars, the community swarms to make their jobs difficult. Here is a video with no violence that shows just how this works. People materialize to witness, to confuse, to chase off. To protect everyone that they can.
