Minneapolis Organizers Stage Massive Anti-Deportation March
5.2
Relevance Score
On January 23, tens of thousands—organizers estimate about 50,000—marched through downtown Minneapolis to demand an end to federal immigration agents' deportation operations following the killing of Renee Good. The coordinated action included business closures, labor walkouts and a blockade of an airport deportation tunnel, preceded a January 24 killing of Alex Pretti, and has been framed by organizers as a potential turning point in resistance.
