<br>
We have seen the brutality of ICE around the country, especially in
Minnesota. The resistance Minnesotans are putting up to ICE\u2019s
occupation is inspiring, brave and creative. <br>
<br>
They are stepping up their resistance. Minnesota organizations are
calling for <b><br>
<font size="4">JANUARY 23: DAY OF TRUTH AND FREEDOM - NO WORK,
SCHOOL, OR SHOPPING</font></b><font size="4">. </font><br>
<br>
This is an organized call for a mass strike on that day where all
Minnesotans are asked \u201cto non-violent moral action, reflection: no
work (except for emergency services), no school, no shopping \u2014 only
community, conscience, and collective action.\u201d<br>
<br>
In solidarity and inspiration there will be a rally from Noon to
1:00 pm on Friday January 23 at the Russell Smith Federal Courthouse
in Missoula, 201 E Broadway.<br>
<br>
In addition to our show of solidarity with Minnesotans resistance to
ICE, we also a call for Montana unions, religious, civic and other
groups to continue and strengthen partnership alignment efforts
amongst each other so we can also develop the capacity to win
long-term struggles. We support Minnesota\u2019s January 23 action and
recognize we need to do the work their inspiring example calls us to
do.<br>
