@omarfatehmn.com on the @majorityreport.bsky.social means something to me. Everything we’ve fought for, the good we want to showcase is on full display. There’s so much more to our city instead of MPD’s racism and the failures of the Frey administration. We fight for each other

Attention East Phillips neighbors! We have rain barrels to spare and we'd love to get them into your hands.

You can use the 50-gallon barrel to water your veggies, help out young trees or have on hand for emergency situations

Remember when corporate developers and the landlord lobby swore up and down that rent control would kill housing? We don’t have rent control, and new buildings aren’t being built.

Housing is a human right and shouldn’t be dependent on market conditions. 2/

You can’t say you support land back while simultaneously disregarding the East Phillips Indoor Urban Farm Project and the voices of Little Earth.

This decade-long fight for Native sovereignty, prosperity and environmental justice will transform the Phillips neighborhoods and our communities.

Relatives are in a hard spot on 24th and Cedar. Today Little Earth neighbors, Sobriety Warriors and AIM came together to clean up and offer prayer songs. We don’t have the resources like the Gov but we do what we can. More help is needed.

Wild to me that this story mentions “city council supporters” in the 3rd paragraph without *ever* mentioning “Mayor Jacob Frey” - whose administration is responsible for the program that went off the rails. I appreciate accountability journalism, but the Strib stops short of the head of the fish.

This Earth day consider donating to this land back effort in East Phillip. In May we plan to close on Roof Depot and with it begin construction of our outdoor farm to provide medicines and free food to 2,000 of our community members. Donating helps with capacity and cover costs!

Native community is often covered with some awful struggle but what often gets left out is how fun the community is. The Native American Community Clinic hosted a baby shower for families and the Indian Center hosted the Auntie Pickleball Tournament. Both fun and both Native AF.

We have plans this summer to provide fresh veggies, fruit & sacred medicines like sage and sweet grass for at least 5,000 residents. This is the beginning of East Phillips plans to becoming a self sustaining food hub that meets its neighbors needs. Money donates will help with outreach & education

We don't even have to tell y'all it's a lie if you live here, but just in case, consider this confirmation 🫶🏻

This man doesn’t know what a trade deficit is and how tariffs works. At some point we gotta grow a spine and investigate him, his ties to Russian and what money went into his Trump coin. USAID and crumbling our infrastructure only weakens us. I’m all for anti-colonialism but this is bad bad.
