We talk with Oglala Lakota poet and organizer Mark K. Tilson about the ICE surge in Minneapolis, the killing of Renee Good, and how neighbors are building a decentralized resistance. The conversation traces lawless tactics, historical patterns, and the courage that grows when people act together.

• collapse of civic life in Minneapolis under raids and fear
• judicial warrants versus administrative actions
• masked agents, unmarked vehicles, and disinformation
• legal observers, community recording, and evidence
• targeting at churches, schools, and traffic stops
• Indigenous detentions and the Whipple Building’s history
• AIM patrol legacy and modern rapid response
• AI surveillance, stingrays, and counter-tactics
• decentralized movement led by everyday neighbors
• fear transforming into large-scale public courage
• poem “Around the Neighborhood” honoring Renee Good

This episode of Breaking Green is dedicated to Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse at the VA hospital in Minneapolis who was shot and killed by ICE on 24 January 2026
