This image captures a scene in St. Paul, Minnesota last week during an incident involving ICE. The central figure in the light-green bathrobe and slippers is Sam Stroozas, a producer for Minnesota Public Radio. Stroozas, who lives only blocks away, rushed to the scene of the car crash that involved federal agents without changing clothes to record the results of their high-speed chase of an immigrant, who was later hospitalized.

This photo deserves a Pulitzer. It so perfectly captures the dichotomy of peaceful Minnesota “Nice” facing down government oppression. The fact that this picture was taken after the announcement of the supposed drawdown of Federals should not be lost. It is emblematic of both ICE actions and the citizen response that has been seen daily these last few months in Minneapolis.

Today is President’s Day, a holiday where we celebrate our former great leaders. Leaders elected to represent all of the people, not just the ones who voted for them. Today, we do not have a president, at least not one who cares about us. With his thugs killing people in the street and his threats to cancel our elections, he hopes to cow us into submission. Let people like this lady show us how to resist them, peacefully documenting their crimes, so that someday they may be brought to justice and our freedoms restored.
