About this listen
A nine-year-old Haitian girl just wants to go to school, but her family is too scared to let her outside.
They haven’t left the house in a while, fearing one of them will be detained by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers currently patrolling the streets of Minneapolis-St.Paul. In fact, the family is so worried they’re hiding at a fellow Haitian’s home in the Twin Cities.
An act of “humanity”, according to their host, in the face of so much fear.
People in Minneapolis-St. Paul are gathering food, standing in the streets, patrolling their neighborhoods, to protect their neighbours from the threat of being detained.
Julia Pagel and Alison Masemann wondered what this moment feels like for the residents of these cities. These are the stories they found.
