.@SeanLimMN, @epni_urbanfarm Community Engagement Director & the partner of a MPS educator, shares why he supports MFT59 as we bargain for a new contract. He’s been creating artwork in solidarity with our union! #InvestInMPS Full video: instagram.com/reel/C5_aeverU…
Rooftop solar coming for Roof Depot: The East Phillips Neighborhood Institute and Cooperative Energy Futures landed a federal grant to develop a large solar array to power project and local homes. sahanjournal.com/climate-enviro…
This spring we're planting seeds that will nourish East Phillips for the long haul 🌱 And now, we need funds to buy equipment like a solar-powered water pump, storage tanks, and a few wheelbarrows. Help us hit this goal by chipping in at any amount here: actionnetwork.org/fundraising/ep…
🌼 Come chat with folks from the EPNI team! We'll be hanging out from 11am - 3pm on April 18 and April 29. This is a casual way to meet some of our team leads as well as share your ideas, questions and feedback relating to the Roof Depot development project.
We’re sowing new seeds in many ways every week and now we're asking you to help them take root! Support this work by chipping into our spring fund drive 🌱 actionnetwork.org/fundraising/ep…
Thank you to community organizers at @epni_urbanfarm and @climatejusticem for such an amazing educational event about the fight for environmental and racial justice in Southside Minneapolis. We appreciated our elders speaking about their experience! Show up for @campnenookaasi
Thanks for sharing ideas and snacks with us at our March community meeting ☀️ We focused on discussing the emerging Outdoor Urban Farm portion of the project. Attendees gave input on what those outdoor spaces should look and feel like through conversation, crafts and more 🌱
Thanks to LERA coffee hour for having me present to Little Earth residents! 🥞☕️ Over a shared pancake breakfast, we had a jam-packed conversation about: Bituminous Roadways closure, shutting down Smith Foundry, folk’s dreams & desires for the land, and @epni_urbanfarm updates!

We accepted the National Lawyers Guild's Social Justice Award in great company❤️🔥 EPNI wouldn't have this chance to renovate the Roof Depot without the East Phillips neighborhood, Little Earth, community partners & elected officials that fought alongside us over the past 10 years
We need your input! Join us on 4/3 or 4/7 to help craft community demands before EPNI goes to the bargaining table with funders and developers in April, when we'll work collectively to refine the ownership model for the development phase of this project. linktr.ee/epnifarm
Calling on those who like cleaning and organizing! Come hang out and help as we get our supplies tidied up before the growing season starts. Find us at 2433 Bloomington Ave, Mpls starting at 5pm 🧹
Thank you to the Minnesota chapter of the National Lawyers Guild for the community justice award, and much gratitude to Susana De Leon for the nomination 🌼 Join for a wonderful evening of speakers, food and more on Saturday.

To our non-Indigenous allies, ask yourself, ask your local municipalities, your universities, your churches, your parents, grandparents, and every person in your circle of influence: “But are you giving Land Back?” #EarthDay #LANDBACK #NDNCollective
Hey @CityMinneapolis Roof Depot will can store your voting equipment. That way we can use the former 3rd precinct for community space and healing. There’s enough room in our building to help out
3000 Minnehaha is located in Ward 9. My residents are clear and they know we can be more creative than this. We can find a DIFFERENT location for an Elections & Voter Services Facility AND dedicate this space for FULL community use and development. Southside deserves it.
East Phillips standing business! For 10 years EPNI has kept the community hope and vision alive. People continue to give their gifts to this struggle. It’s not one moment or one group that made this happen but the collective. With that I can only humbly say mighwech to you all 🌼
We accepted the National Lawyers Guild's Social Justice Award in great company❤️🔥 EPNI wouldn't have this chance to renovate the Roof Depot without the East Phillips neighborhood, Little Earth, community partners & elected officials that fought alongside us over the past 10 years
Today we delivered more than 8,000 petition signatures to @USACEHQ in St Paul to reject permits for Line 5—America’s most dangerous pipeline. On the heels of @BadRiverFilm, now is the time to affirm tribal sovereignty and protect the Great Lakes from oil before it’s too late.
🙏 To all of the people who came out to the theaters this weekend, BAD RIVER has been extended into a second week in almost all locations! Thank you to @EdwardNorton, @Qchasinghorse, @LeoDiCaprio, @Pride_of_gypies, @lily_gladstone, @MarkRuffalo, @SophiaBush and @channingtatum…
Thanks strong turnout, @BadRiverFilm is in theaters another week! 👏 So many supporters came out to see this amazing film last weekend in the Twin Cities. It’s showing at AMC Eden Prairie thru March 28. Make plans to see it- tix at badriverfilm.com.
Amazing premiere of @BadRiverFilm in Minneapolis. Big demand to see the film here- AMC expanded from one to nine screenings today. Thanks to the Bad River elders who spoke tonight. Group photo of some attendees. Congrats @marymazzio, participants & crew on this incredible film!
🎥✨Tomorrow is the premiere of @BadRiverFilm in select theaters across the country. Directed by @marymazzio and narrated by @Qchasinghorse and @EdwardNorton, chronicles the Wisconsin-based Bad River Band. Visit badriverfilm.com to learn more and see this important film!
Proud to partner w/groundbreaking @BadRiverFilm! Narrated by @Qchasinghorse & @EdwardNorton, this film is a must-watch! And it's not just a film—it's a movement, a testament to the enduring spirit of the Bad River Band. #BadRiverFilm @marymazzio @fierce_urgency @realgranthill33
Tomorrow is the theatrical premiere of @BadRiverFilm, powerful new documentary directed @marymazzio and narrated by Indigenous activist and model @Qchasinghorse and award-winning actor @EdwardNorton. Join us for the 7pm Mpls screening- free tix here: bit.ly/3TxZ5b5 🎟️

Thank You to everyone who joined us at Little Earth🌻 We used the ‘world café’ method to discuss Community Ownership of the @epni_urbanfarm Project I had a great time facilitating group visioning exercises about values that resonate with East Phillips residents 📸 Spencer Polk
Doing the work with community and hearing their stories and visions for this project makes me so happy ❤️

Here's @PeterWagenius of @SierraClubMN letting Republicans know they should give up their dream of reforming the Met Council into a government that disenfranchises Hennepin and Ramsey County residents. youtube.com/watch?v=L8i4Jg…
Fundraising Upate: THANK YOU! We exceeded our year end fundraising goal! Every dollar donated goes directly towards basic survival supplies for unhoused neighbors in Minneapolis and St. Paul.

Frey's decision to evict our neighbors at @campnenookaasi tomorrow is inhumane & puts residents in danger. There aren't enough shelter beds to keep people safe. Our neighbors will be unnecessarily traumatized & the loss of stability makes getting into long-term housing harder.
Huh. Just received the Hennepin County Office to End Homelessness weekly shelter report. Figured I’d go check out the dashboard since the City is planning to displace the 150+ residents of @campnenookaasi tomorrow. (Dashboard available here: app.powerbigov.us/view?r=eyJrIjo… )
Disingenuous, to say the least. The city needs to quit playing - the community is bringing forward solutions. Imagine what we could accomplish if they weren’t wasting everyone’s time & resources having to fight them all the time. It’s ridiculous - enough is enough.
The city telling a homeless camp that sleeping outside in the winter isn't safe, right before depriving them of the shelter they've made for themselves, is a real "stop hitting yourself" moment. youtu.be/Y5ZlDQbBzB0?si…
I don’t support the mass displacement and eviction of over one hundred overwhelmingly Indigenous residents of Nenookaasi Healing Camp (@campnenookaasi). I emailed Mayor Frey and asked him to stop the eviction and to join us for a meeting to establish a Cultural Healing Center.
