Cops in St. Peter. Minnesota, intervene in an ICE arrest. ♥️👍🏿
St. Peter Minnesota's police scorecard is better than most police departments in the US.
There is no racial disparities in killings by St. Peter police, because... St. Peter police haven't killed anyone in the last 13 years.🤷🏿♂️
And St. Peter has a higher percent of Black residents than California.

Mayor Shannon Nowell talks about ICE activity and law enforcement from the perspective of protecting the community *from* ICE agents.
Police chief Matt Grochaw lists 8 times that his officers have "had to make contact" with ICE agents, and speaks about the impact to community safety and well-being.
My point:
"Racism is just fascism practiced on Black people first" is true. But it has corollaries: "A community that is more resistant to racism, is more resistant to fascism."
