Yeshidagna is part of a coalition of student groups that organized the #Minnesota shutdown last Friday, in which thousands of people flooded the streets in sub-zero temperatures & hundreds of businesses shut their doors to demand #justice for #ReneeGood, who was shot by an #ICE agent while trying to protect a neighbor. Last weekend, agents killed #AlexPretti, another resident who was observing agents’ activities.

The student groups – including the associations representing Black, Somali, Liberian, Ethiopian & Eritrean students & the graduate #labor #union – first gathered on 21 January to plan the calls for local & national #strikes. “We came out in huge numbers despite the cold,” he said, referencing last week’s actions. “We are now doing it again.”
