Against Police Terror

Abolishing Policing

Policing needs to be abolished for Black lives and all lives to matter.  Policing is inseparable from the racism and classism that is part and parcel with capitalism.  Working to end one is to work to end them all.  We will replace police terror with justice, freedom, and plenty for all.

Statement against violent arrests and absurd charges against participants in New Year's Eve noise demonstration

Summary

On New Year's Eve, our community gathered for a noise demonstration in downtown Minneapolis in support of prison abolition and in solidarity with incarcerated folks. Officers swarmed the scene, abruptly making violent arrests without dispersal orders. It is an abuse of power to disperse a protest without issuing such an order. Instead of ticketing or releasing folks - which is the norm - our friends and relatives were held over the holiday weekend under probable cause charges, which historically has been used by police to give extra time to justify otherwise unlawful arrests that violate everyone’s first amendment rights to protest.

We Build Solidarity, Not Pipelines

Summary

What does Line 3 pipeline resistance have to do with class struggle? Everything. With the harms that this project inflicts on land and water, treaty rights, workers, women, and rural communities, it’s clear that we are being sold out for Enbridge profits. Rural workers and Indigenous people have to take our future into our own hands.

Politics Without Proud Boys

Summary

In order to combat them effectively, those opposed to fascist paramilitaries running around in their streets need to understand the Proud Boys' inception and unique development. We need to know what they are selling, and who they are selling it to. Because as economic conditions worsen, and political gridlock continues, the Proud Boys will only grow in number and resolve. We need to match and exceed their organizational efforts. We need to expand popular support for ANTIFA, or antifascist political activism. Breaking down the stigmas and myths that revolve around antifascism is crucial.
