Quote of the Day
“People on the left are always pining for a general strike. Tomorrow in Minneapolis we will see the closest thing that we have seen in a long time. This is a city full of activists and strong labor unions and, generally speaking, one of the most organized cities you will find anywhere in America. That characteristic, combined with the utter grotesqueness of the racist ICE assault on the city, has inspired the people of Minneapolis to plan a day of action which just may go down in history. There are many good reporters in this city who have documented the causes and the planning and the goals of the movement that has come together to build something that may, may, may be unprecedented.”
Nolan says the Minneapolis ICE protests aimed to become the closest thing to a modern US general strike.
