Another visit to Renee Good's memorial today -

[Ocelot II]

A lot of city police and traffic control were there to keep people out of the middle of Portland Ave., which is now partly open to traffic. The police were completely pleasant and cordial. There were a lot of people again, many Somalis, and they were handing out hot samosas again. A surprising number of media people, including NPR, CBS and MS NOW (saw the guy who's been reporting from the site since Wednesday) and others I didn't recognize. The memorials (flowers, signs, candles, sage) have grown considerably. No violence or hints of it at all, but the rhetoric was more intense than yesterday, frequent chants of FUCK ICE!. This isn't going away. People are sad but they are also angry.



Not sure about this character.

4. Thank you Ocelot II,

My heart will always travel the streets of Minneapolis, it is in those streets that I became, that I grew, that I learned and that I loved.
So many stories, so much life, so much suffering in those streets, so much Good.

[progressoid]

11. Yeah...

Maybe this guy is masking because of the flu/covid outbreak ???

[SunImp]

12. I mask up like that too when going to protests

Hope no one mistakes me for an ICE coward

[irisblue]

13. Maybe get a bandana -Fuck Ice Goons?

[hunter]

19. Blue jeans and a different color jacket too.

Nobody would mistake me for ICE even if I was masked up.

[Ocelot II]

14. Could have been just a health thing.

He wasn't doing anything strange, just caught my eye that he was wearing a gaiter-type mask rather than a medical one.

[progressoid]

16. I understand that.

He may also be protecting himself from a retaliatory employer.
