Protestors Celebrate Victory Against Four Man Nazi "Rally"

Counterdemonstraters rallied today at the Midtown YWCA on Lake Street after successfully routing neo-Nazis who appeared to protest a anti-racism workshop held by the Y. The peaceful group played music and listened to speakers throughout the day, after the Nazis fled the scene having tomatoes hurled at them as they went, according to one onlooker.

Neo-Nazis Chased Out of Town

The neo-nazis produce a paltry presence to protest an anti-racism workshop held
Tails between their legs, the haters prepare to leave
What to do?  We're outnumbered 100:1
Crowds follow as the cops escort the nazis to their car
Cops hold the crowds back for them to get in their car
Defeated

One Year Anniversary and Rally for Brandon Rodriguez

In Hastings, MN on July 10, 2008, at night Brandon was having a mental health crisis. When the Hastings Police were dispatched, he ran into the cemetery behind their house. Refusing their commands and waving a sword, the police shot Brandon several times and died at the hospital on July 11, 2008.

    After the painful event, The Hastings Police rather than addressing the wrongful death and very poor and lack of judgement, Police Chief McMenomy awarded the officers medals of honor for killing him.

The MN Immigrant Rights Action Coalition and the May 1st Coalition are planning the 4th Annual March for Immigrant Rights on May 1st, 2009. We have solicited permits for a march down Lake St. and a rally on Nicollett Ave, and they have both been denied.

Just as we did two years ago, we are asking the Minneapolis City Council to pass a resolution to support our march on Lake St. PLEASE CALL today to let your city council member, they mayor and the chief of police that we have right to march for immigrant rights on International Workers Day.
