I was born in Minneapolis, though I now live in Chicago — Chicago stands with you!! I cannot find the words to describe what I feel, and what I feel pales in comparison to your reality. Still, Minnesota has set the standard for the rest of the country. Your bravery will make your grandchildren proud to be descended from heroes! The work must seem endless…. But we will end this. The last breath of a rotting empire, long overdue. I only wish it hadn’t happened to you. But that is not for us to decide, only what we do with the time given to us. And, Minnesota, you have made a most inspiring, courageous, and truly revolutionary use of your time! Keep up the good fight! You have more allies than enemies!
