Republicans Are Closing Your Clinic Rally
2025-10-17 16:00 - 17:00 | MN
Rally to let our community know we will not sit idly by while Republicans drive up health insurance premiums and cut off access to necessary healthcare across Minnesota. 200,000 Minnesotans are going to lose insurance because Brad Finstad, Pete Stauber, Michelle Fischbach, and Tom Emmer keep voting to make your life more expensive. Republicans are the ONLY ones responsible for this shutdown.
But there is something you can do! Join us to rally outside of the Northfield Allina Clinic to show Trump and the GOP – Minnesotans deserve healthcare!!!
We will meet on the sidewalk outside of the Northfield Allina.
Bring your own signs to show the GOP know how harmful their votes in Congress are to our community. Also bring your friends and family!
We will follow up with additional parking information. Do not park in the clinic parking lot!
All participants are expected to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree.

No Kings Protest
2025-10-18 12:00 | MN
Our peaceful movement is only getting bigger and stronger. “NO KINGS” is more than just a slogan—it’s the foundation our nation was built upon. Born in the streets, carried by millions in chants and on posters, it echoes from city blocks to rural town squares, uniting people across this country to fight dictatorship together.
The president thinks his rule is absolute. But in America, we don’t have kings, and we won’t back down against chaos, corruption, and cruelty. Grow our movement and join us.
A core principle behind all No Kings events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values and to act lawfully at these events. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events.
Start making your signs, my friends! We will all meet at noon Saturday, Oct. 18, at 126th and Nicollet (in front of the park by the Ames Center and Mediterranean Cruise). Lots of nearby parking, very accessible for all ages! Bring your signs, your music, your family and your neighbors! Thousands of these protests will be gathering all over the country on this date! Let’s stand up for democracy! Let’s stand up (or bring a chair and sit!) and be counted!

CD2 & CD3 Volunteer Training Summit
2025-10-19 10:00 - 15:00 | MN
Join us Sunday October 19th as we meet for a volunteer training summit. This will be a full day event where we train volunteers to create, host, and support events across the state like house parties, forums, door knocks, and phone banks.
In this training you’ll learn:

How to recruit for your events
Create a welcoming environment for attendees and volunteers through radical hospitality
Collaborate and distribute the organizing workload to create a sustainable organizing structure.
Building momentum and re-shifting folks into future events.
Using tools like Mobilize and VAN to support your outreach efforts.

Lunch will be provided. Looking forward to seeing you soon!

Burnsville Issues Door Knock
2025-10-20 16:00 - 19:00 | MN
We will be knocking doors in Burnsville to talk to voters about what issues are on their minds, how we can best advocate for them as we head into the midterms, and whether they’d be interested in joining us by getting involved with the local DFL party. This is not traditional door knocking where we’re encouraging people to support a specific candidate, but these conversations are crucial as we start to build capacity for our BLUE WAVE next year!
A brief (~20 min) training is provided and new canvassers will always be paired with someone more experienced, so don’t fear if you’ve never knocked doors before! We also have water, sunscreen, and snacks on hand. Door knocking is typically a 1.5-2 hour commitment.
It may seem silly, but studies have shown that knocking on doors and meeting voters directly is one of the most effective ways to ensure that people stay engaged in their communities and vote in elections. We hope to see you there!

Minnesota Immigrant Movement (MIM) - Fundraiser for Rent Assistance Program
2026-03-02 18:00 - 21:00 | Main Cinema, 115 Main St SE, Minneapolis, MN, 55414
Join our friends at the Minnesota Immigrant Movement (MIM) for a fundraiser in support of their Rent Assistance Program. The fundraiser will be a screening of the film “BORDERLAND | The Line Within” by Pamela Yates and Paco de Onís. Following the film, Producer Paco de Onís will join via zoom for a live Q&A session with the audience.
ABOUT THE FILM: Director Pamela Yates and Producer Paco de Onís capture the lives of immigrants coming from Venezuela seeking refuge from a violent culture.

The United States border is not just a geographic location. The border is everywhere. It lies within every undocumented immigrant family with the threat that at any moment they can be captured, incarcerated, deported; their lives destroyed. BORDERLAND | The Line Within not only exposes the profitable business of immigration and its human cost, but weaves together the stories of immigrant heroines and heroes resisting and showing a way forward, intent on building a movement in the shadow of the border industrial complex, recognizing the human rights of all.
By donating and attending this film screening, you will are supporting our community with rent assistance. There will be a Silent Art Auction showcasing works created by Minnesota immigrant artists.
Minnesota Immigrant Movement continues to show up during these traumatic and difficult times for our communities through rent support, food assistance, rapid response, and DOPA Application assistance. Before this occupation, during this occupation, and after we will continue to be here for our community.
Thank you to all that are supporting our community during these difficult times, we are immensely grateful for all the love and solidarity.
