At 8AM, Minneapolis City Council members received this pledge from Black Visions and Reclaim The Block. They have 24 hours to sign on.
With our city on fire and police accountability nowhere to be found, it is clearer than ever that safety in Minneapolis comes from the community and not from the police.
Many members of the Minneapolis City Council have made statements critical of MPD’s murder of George Floyd. We challenge them to publicly commit to building the city we need by cutting MPD’s budget and investing in the resources that really keep us healthy and safe. We need them to explicitly support Black communities, Indigenous communities, and communities of color with city dollars.
Community, we need your help. Share this post and sign the petition at https://bit.ly/DEFUNDMPD demanding the council
