Minneapolis School Graffiti: “Don’t Trust the Feds”

Graffiti on a concrete wall near a Minneapolis Public School reads "LOVE and Protect your NEIGHBORS DON'T Trust the Feds" followed by a heart symbol. This message likely refers to federal immigration enforcement actions, such as Operation Metro Surge, which occurred in Minneapolis and other cities in 2006. The graffiti reflects community sentiment regarding federal immigration policies and their impact on local residents.
