Minneapolis Police Department violently holding down the working class— 1934 July 20

On this date in 1934 the Minneapolis Police opened fire on strikers in the warehouse district, shooting 67 picketers and killing two men – a Teamster and an unemployed supporter.

The MPD has never been on our side. It cannot be reformed or “controlled” away from its mission, which is to hold down the working-class and oppressed people.
