In Minneapolis this week, federal prosecutors have announced charges against 15 anti-ICE activists who took part in protests against the Trump administration’s deadly immigration crackdown in the Twin Cities earlier this year. The 15 individuals are accused of being part of anti-fascist, or “antifa,” groups that “violently oppose immigration law enforcement" and are charged with “conspiracy to impede or injure a federal officer." At least five of the indicted are trade unionists. In our latest, we talked with Minneapolis based labor journalist Amie Stager about the indictment and how it's a case of overreach by the Trump administration.
