The news has moved on, but ICE is still in Minneapolis. My neighbors are still patrolling streets, driving strangers to work, and providing aid. As a photojournalist at @propublica.org, I wanted to know: What do they look like in their daily lives? So I picked up my camera 👇

Four portraits of Minnesota residents inside and outside their homes. From left to right: A woman in a hijab, an older woman wearing a red whistle, an elderly couple in winter coats standing in the snow, and a woman wearing a buttoned-up cardigan and dark blue jeans.

This has been the GOP's "starve-the-beast" scheme for nearly 50 years. Meanwhile, millions suffer and struggle to get ahead as the rich get richer. See the problem here?

Georgia O’Keeffe Museum Unveils Digital Archive of the Artist’s Entire Body of Work By Emma Taggart mymodernmet.com/georgia-okee... Georgia O'Keeffe Museum: access-ok.okeeffemuseum.org #art #culture #womenhistoryMonth

Photograph of painting Red Canna (1923) by Georgia O'Keeffe on display at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. Photo taken February 2023.

The canvas is consumed almost entirely by cascading waves of deep crimson and scarlet. Broad, voluptuous petals curve and overlap in smooth, sensuous arcs. Flashes of deep orange glow at the centre where the stamens emerge, and small scrolls of dark green leaf curl at the corners, providing the only relief from the overwhelming warmth of the reds.

As long as guns are easily available to crazy people, mass killings directed at so-called soft targets will continue. This is a fact. Countries where it's more difficult for crazy people to obtain guns have less shootings. This is also a fact. Do with these facts as you will.
