Wow, tens of thousands. Itโ€™s been growing exponentially. As of this morning, there are 12,000 people across Minneapolis on the multi-neighborhood rapid responses. That's 3.46 percent of the adult population of Minneapolis, and thatโ€™s people who can tolerate these giant Signal group chats with a thousand people - most canโ€™t. I would say thereโ€™s at least three times that many people in their individual neighborhood groups, block groups, and school patrol groups doing rapid response and ICE watch. And then I would double that number again for the folks who are giving rides, bringing food to peopleโ€™s homes, going grocery shopping for targeted communities, doing fundraising for rent and other material support. At this point, I donโ€™t know a single person in Minneapolis who isnโ€™t involved in this work.

Local resistance is โ€œgrowing exponentially," says Defend the 612โ€™s Andrew Fahlstrom.
