We stand in solidarity with our Muslim neighbors in the wake of yet another act of hate. Our communities' safety is tied together, and only together can we be liberated from violent hate.
CAIR-MN said someone smelled a gas leak in the early morning of Oct. 5. Members from the community found more than 30 tires strategically placed inside the building and a large gas pipe was cut inside the facility, possibly seeking an explosion and subsequent fire.

Glad to support our union siblings at the Land Stewardship Project and Land Stewardship Action Fund! I just signed the petition asking management to recognize their entire bargaining unit - I hope you will, too. (Link in quoted tweet)
After voluntarily recognizing us, Management & their lawyer have back-tracked, requesting that 3 card-signing staff who are legally eligible for the union be removed from the bargaining unit before they sign a recognition agreement. actionnetwork.org/petitions/…

Congrats to the newest members of our union family 🎉 🥳 Now it’s up to @johnffarrell and @stacyfmitchell to do the right thing: recognize their union with @OPEIULocal12 and begin bargaining a first contract that benefits everyone. ✊✊✊ #1u #UnionStrong
Hello, world! We’re so excited to announce the formation of the ILSR Staff Union, a part of @OPEIULocal12. Thread:

In my 25 years as a reporter I have NEVER heard police in America actually say “journalists will be arrested” during a protests. But that happened in #BrooklynCenter last night. We stayed. The citizens are why we stay. I took this moments aft the announcement #DaunteWright

Daunte Wright should be alive. The community members demanding answers about his death at the hands of law enforcement have a right to protest. Police reforms aren’t happening fast enough to save lives or spare our community levels of relentless anguish each time this happens

Yes! @MNYCWorkers ran a bold and transformative campaign to win changes in their workplace by taking action together as a group! 👏👏👏 We’re proud to welcome them to our Local and help ensure that their new contract is enforced!
🎉 WE’VE WON! 🎉 @mnycollective nonprofit workers are proud to share that our #union has reached a tentative agreement and a contract. We’re excited for it to benefit all staff starting on Nov 30th! We’re so grateful for all of the community support. Thank you. #UnionStrong #1U

Wow! Workers at a very well known Twin Cities brand just marched on their boss and demanded recognition of their Union! The workers gave them 24 hours to respond... stay tuned to see if the boss does the right thing!
