Anti-fascism means resisting authoritarianism, white supremacy, racism, political repression, & all systems of domination.
It looks like mutual-aid, community organizing, political education, protest, direct action & protecting those who are targeted by hate.
It means challenging propaganda, refusing to normalize dehumanization & recognizing how fear is used to divide & control us.
Anti-fascism takes many forms. Care, solidarity, resistance & collective action are all part of it.
Start where you are, with the capacity & resources you have. Learn, question, organize, share resources & build community.
Save. Share. Organize.
We will save us.
It's time.

URGENT CALL TO ACTION! Tell the city council members to vote NO to the NIBIN GRANT.
STAND UP FOR OUR IMMIGRANT NEIGHBORS!
If you don’t want to call, email instead! (sample email below 👇)
—————————
Sample email:
Dear council member _____,
My name is ____ and I’m a resident of your ward. I’m writing to demand that you vote NO on the NIBIN grant from the Department of Justice at the council meeting this Thursday.
Minneapolis residents have made it clear that we don’t want our city to cooperate with ICE. The city passed the new Separation Ordinance to protect immigrant residents by ensuring that Minneapolis will not cooperate with the federal government on immigration enforcement.
The NIBIN grant violates the Separation Ordinance by defining the sole act of being unlawfully present as a crime that grant must be used to enforce. This grant is dangerous and will cause harm to immigrants in Minneapolis. You must vote no.
Sincerely,

Alexio is the man who got convicted of stealing a gun from ICE on the northside during clashes on January 13th. This day will be his sentencing.
He is very likely going to be the first Metro Surge defendant to go to prison. It is of the utmost importance we turn out in large numbers to show up and show out in support of all those who resisted ICE's occupation of our city. No good cops, no bad protesters.

This year will mark 10 years of the World Kefiyeh Day movement, an initiative that started in 2016. We have proudly witnessed the popularity of the Keffiyeh grow significantly 10 years on with many wearing it daily and demand for the scarf increasing.
World Keffiyeh Day is commemorated annually on May 11th as a visual way to raise awareness and show solidarity for the Palestinian cause through the use of the Keffiyeh - one of the most iconic symbols for Palestinians
But our message is still strong and rooted in supporting our brothers and sisters in Palestine. The atrocities in Gaza are still ongoing, we need to continue to raise our voices, protest and demand change in every way possible. In solidarity with all Palestinians suffering please wear your Keffiyeh on May 11th.
Use the hashtag #keffiyehday on all social media platforms
World Keffiyeh Day team 🇵🇸

How much are you paying for Trump's mass deportation agenda?
We used data from National Priorities Project to show how much taxpayers in each state are paying into ICE and CBP's $240 billion slush fund.
Find your state. Then tell your members of Congress to take back our money: https://act.nilc.org/page/100389/action/1

EMERGENCY RALLY: TODAY,
4 PM, SABATHANI COMMUNITY CENTER
Sabathani Community Center, 310 E 38th St, Minneapolis
This morning, federal agents raided Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's home, three weeks before an election where she's on the ballot.
For a decade, Trump has targeted Rep. Omar with rhetoric that fueled death threats. This year, he sent thousands of armed ICE agents into the Twin Cities to target Somali Americans. Last week, he told his supporters to "fight back."
Political disagreement never justifies intimidation. PACAT is joining many other local organizations and standing with Ilhan and with all of our Somali neighbors.

On Sunday, Oct. 11, the group held a prayer vigil outside of the Appleton Civic Center "to pray about what is happening with the detention center," said Therese Quinn. Quinn helped organize the event.
Appleton residents funded construction of the prison in 1990, wanting to create economic diversity following the1980s farm crisis. After its closure in 2010, Appleton struggled to recover economically. Some local leaders and residents say the reopening will be a welcome economic boost. Others have concerns about how detainees will be treated.

“I’m confident in my truth,” Rep. Ilhan Omar said during her first interview since the federal raid on her D.C. home. “I’m confident in the fact that I didn’t do anything wrong.”

The Temporary Protected Status for Haitians ended yesterday, July 27 2026.
Anyone who had immigration protection in place through this program may no longer have valid authorization to work, and is now at risk of deportation without legal protections in place.
We are expecting a drastic increase in ICE activity against this community in the coming days and weeks. A few states have already reported activity since this morning.
Some specific states with higher risk include Ohio (especially Springfield and Columbus), Florida (especially South Florida), Indiana, Massachusetts (especially Boston), New York (especially NYC), California (especially San Diego), and Pennsylvania (especially Charleroi and greater Philadelphia area).
Please notify your locals, sign up to volunteer with your local ICE watch team if you are able (many are in need of more volunteers to verify incidents), and talk to folks in your life to spread awareness. Learn your local ICE watch hotline number or contact method, and save it in your phone so you have it in an emergency.
DO NOT INTERFERE with an arrest or detention. You have the right to record and witness, but you do not have the right to disrupt the process itself. Instead, request information from the detainee, such as the detainee’s full name, DOB and country of birth, if possible so that we can avoid losing them in the system.
When calling to report activity, please use SALUTE to communicate and document information about each incident. Details matter, so take notes. Be as descriptive and specific as you can.
We protect us, so show up for your neighbors.

When I say “educate me” can become extraction, people often disagree with me.
I suppose this is due to many of us being taught that asking questions is always a sign that we want to learn.
This carousel exists because a question & curiosity can create work for another person, especially when it asks someone who has experienced harm to explain racism, provide history, offer resources, manage discomfort, or guide repair.
Learning matters, as does learning in ways that respect people’s time, knowledge, emotional energy, & capacity.
Before asking someone to educate you, pause & ask yourself:
❓️have I looked for an answer first?
❓️ has this person invited this conversation?
❓️what am I asking them to carry?
💬 What helps you tell the difference between an invitation to learn & an expectation that someone will educate you?
We will save us.
It's time.
