I’m going to assume that if you’re reading this, you more or less understand the situation in Minnesota and I don’t have to explain it to you! That said, I do have a section of local news sources, below. But to answer the question most people want to ask: yes, things are really as bad here as they look in the media. ICE officers are lawless thugs who are kidnapping my neighbors, and the claim that they’re doing us a service by removing violent criminals is a bald-faced lie. You probably knew that already, but just in case, there you go.
I guess I should briefly introduce myself: my name is Naomi Kritzer. I’m a science fiction and fantasy writer. (I have a book coming out in June.) I also write an election guide for Minneapolis and St. Paul, which a lot of people here use when they’re getting ready to vote in local elections. I lived in Minneapolis from 1995 through 2012, and I have lived in St. Paul since 2012. I love my community and also wrote a post of ideas for local people who are looking for things they can do right now.
