‼️ URGENT

Our unsheltered Indigenous relatives need a warm place to survive.

While ICE terrorizes Minneapolis, detaining Native people who are citizens of this land since time immemorial, the Minnesota Indian Women’s Resource Center is holding the line.

Our people cannot shelter safely outside. MIWRC offers a culturally grounded, low-barrier sanctuary in the heart of the Phillips neighborhood.

The Minnesota Indian Women’s Resource Center warming shelter is open. But keeping it open costs money.

They need $45,000 to maintain operations as this crisis continues.

This week:
→ One person died from exposure
→ Four Oglala Sioux tribal members were detained by ICE
→ Renee Good was killed by an ICE agent
→ Temps are plunging to dangerous, deadly levels

Beyond warmth, food, and safety, MIRC staff will help guests obtain tribal IDs and documentation. Right now, that paperwork can be the difference between freedom and detention. This is about survival. This is about sovereignty. This is about taking care of our own when the government won’t.

Donate now: https://bit.ly/Healinglight 

Every dollar keeps the doors open.

"Minneapolis had considered taking a page from St. Paul‘s approach to managing encampments, with the Minneapolis City Council voting this month to provide toilets and dumpsters, but Mayor Jacob Frey vetoed the measure.." www.startribune.com/st-paul-home...
Almost a year after it formed, a major homeless encampment in St. Paul has remained relatively clean and calm, with dumpsters to keep trash in check, portable toilets for residents and frequent visits from outreach workers who try to connect camp residents to services.

Come do court support!
The City is trying to get the case thrown out via a motion for summary judgment.
This is the final hurdle: if we win this argument, we go to trial.
Monday, 9/22 10AM room 7D
316 Robert St N, St Paul, MN 55101
*have to go through a metal detector to get into court - please show up in a way that gives the relatives the best chance at making a good impression with the judge*Mayor Frey justifies evictions of unhoused neighbors by saying it is in public interest, predicated on victim blaming narratives and stigma.
Encampments are not the cause of harm.
Rather, they are targets of harm and the result of harms that already exist. Encampments are a symptom of systemic injustice; a source of resident-made interim stability borne out of necessity. They are a result of structural abandonment and policy choices.
When a school shooting takes place, we don't blame students and shutter schools. We ask, "How can we create safer schools?" But when encampments are targeted with violence, Mayor Frey blames unhoused neighbors and evicts them.
Nenookaasi residents filed a lawsuit, saying this is not only morally wrong, but violates their legal rights.The hearing on Monday will determine whether we go to trial or if the judge will dismiss the case.
If the case goes to trial, it will take place in December.
If the judge dismisses the case, we may appeal.

Evictions are an effort to displace residents, and make them move. So we as supporters come prepared to help with:
-Heavy duty trash bags
-Large bags or suitcases
-Shopping carts
-Carts or wagons with wheels
***Anything you bring will likely be lost eventually and should be considered permenant donationDuring an eviction:
Protect yourself. Wear a mask, gloves and heavy duty clothing. There's many things that can harm you, and it's easy for accidents to happen in the chaos of an eviction
Talk to residents they are the experts and likely have done this many times before.
Stay focused on immediate tasks at hand; helping move residents and their things.
Do not make offers or promises you cannot follow through on.Police presence
Police presence will be very high. At multiple evitions this winter, the ENTIRE third precinct police staff was present
Police create a perimeter around the encampment early in the morning a few blocks out and do not allow anyone to enter the perimeter to help residents move.
HINE APE
FOLK
For this reason we suggest showing up extra early (5am) if you plan to help residents move
We try to remain calm and focus on helping residents. These police will use any excuse they can to further bully and brutalize encampment residents.After an eviction:
The night and days following an eviction are important times to offer support. Overdoses, and trafficking are statistically most likely to occur immediately following an eviction. Ways to support look like:
Finding people living outside near evicted site and offering tents, blankets, hot food, water, narcan, rides, cash, cigarettes. ASK what they may need.
Do Not: offer or promise anything you can not follow through on

Dear community,  For people feeling afraid after the militarized Southside operation,  we see you and are with you.   ICE and all the agencies involved are part of the system that should have no say in who belongs here.   We'll keep standing together with you and keeping each other safe.
